The popular mobile VoIP company, Truphone, has recently launched Truphone Business, a BlackBerry application enabling business users to make 50% cheaper international phone calls.
The new service unfortunately isn’t available globally – it’s the UK that the company is targeting, at least initially. The whole thing works like “standard” Truphone app, meaning that it’s almost entirely “invisible” to end users, who simply dial an international number as usual, without noticing that the call is being connected by Truphone.
Truphone Business is quick and easy to provision, being pushed to each device via the Blackberry server, instantly activating the service on every BlackBerry device. Specifically designed for business use, the service also offers centralised monthly billing with itemised and departmental reporting.
The new service is offered at two tiers of rates, TruStandard and TruSaver, for a monthly subscription of 2.50 GBP and 5.00 GBP, respectively. Truphone’s website is the place to look for all the additional information.

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.
