Truphone for the iPod Touch

On the heels of the release of Truphone 3.0 for the Apple iPhone, Truphone has recently launched the version of their app for iPod Touch users.

The updated application is even easier to use, faster, and brings improved voice quality. As with the previous release, the new version also supports a number of IM services such as Skype, MSN Messenger, AIM, Yahoo! Messenger and Google Talk. Users can phone for free to other Truphone, Skype, and Google Talk users; while calling to landlines and mobiles around the world is significantly cheaper, and you can see rates before actually initiating a call.

Rest of the features include:

  • Display recent call history, showing the Truphone customer exactly how much a call just cost and how long it lasted with the ability to see a summary of calls made month by month;
  • Top-up from within the application, without the need for web windows to open separately;
  • Top-up in a variety of ways: credit card or PayPal;
  • Change calling tariffs within the application.

He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application.
