We have tested it with our son in the USA and others on Freshtel in Aust - works a treat, great voice quality and no delays and cheap as chips call costs - this is the real deal.

The volume was a little low but I could hear fine. I have experimented extensively with mobile VoIP on Nokia phones and have found that you really need a good broadband connection. For example, if I'm downloading a large file off the Internet, the call quality will degrade. However, under normal conditions, the call quality is perfect and I have never experienced a latency issue over wifi.

In all cases the voice quality and latency (delay) make it unusable. I have tried Skype and Gizmo on my new Nokia E51, using various routers and operators.

Truphone is the best and easiest to setup but I also use Sipgate, which is nearly as good and has better rates to some of the countries I call in Europe. I have not used a landline is nearly 5 years.
