Truphone is out with their VoIP app that specifically targets iPod Touch users. Not that you can’t use it on your iPhone as well, the idea is to add phone functionality to the iPod Touch, which is an awesome idea.
However, you will need a microphone adaptor in order to actually talk with someone on the other side, but that’s not a big deal. Once you add microphone and install Truphone from the AppStore, you’re ready to take and make free calls to users of Truphone’s Internet telephony service, and to users of the Google Talk instant messaging service.
News doesn’t stop there. Truphone plans to upgrade its app in the near future to allow users to make and receive calls to and from landlines at low cost, chat and talk with their buddies on Skype and MSN, as well as check and set facilities for Twitter and Facebook.
Want it? Here’s the link from where you can grab Truphone for iPod Touch (iTunes).

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
