First VoIP Solution for Palm OS

MantraGroup Inc., a leading provider of mobile software solutions, has announced mobiVoIP, the first VoIP solution targeted for Palm OS Devices.

VoIP, or Voice over IP (pronounced 'voyp'), is a new technology that enables making phone calls over the Internet. With VoIP technology, the phone call is routed through the internet and gets terminated to a PSTN or other VoIP client. Instead of passing the telephone call to a telephone operator, it uses the existing Internet connection and thereby provides cost savings on phone bills.

mobiVoIP requires the Palm device to be able to connect to the Internet through Bluetooth, WiFi (802.11), or EVDO. It allows the user to place telephone calls directly from the PDA thus expanding PDA’s capabilities to be used as a converged device.
“We are the first company to release a VoIP solution for Palm OS. We are confident that mobiVoIP will truly change the way we use our Palm devices.” says Manohar Chapalamadugu, CEO of MantraGroup.

mobiVoIP is offered as a monthly service with various calling plans designed for North America and other countries. More information on the plans can be obtained from http://www.mobivoip.net/.

Download: mobiVoIP is available for download at http://www.mobivoip.net/.

“Free” Updates: MantraGroup provides free software updates for registered users. Also, updates can be received and installed Over the Air (OTA) directly from the device.
