My guess is that this will be the most popular iPhone application for the iPhone unless Skype finally manages to release an official Skype application.
Ok - from the beginning (you can tell I’m super excited about this)! Fring released a multichat iphone software allowing you to add your skype, Gtalk, ICQ etc contacts to your iphone and you can do VOIP calls to your contacts by using your Wifi connection. Once you are on 3G you won’t be able to do any calls but you can still chat via 3G.
I’m so happy about this because I can finally trash my crappy Skype headsets and just use the iPhone to do Skype calls. And the best is that you can still do free skype to skype calls. As long as you are using a wifi connection.
Hmm wondering if I should start up my fon router again. Hmm .. google said NO! Can’t connect to fon hot spots unless apple changes their T&C so it’s allowed to run programs in the background. But I think they will allow it once they release the new firmware allowing chats with push functions.
So add some credits to your skype account or sign up for an account and download this awesome FREE Fring application for the iPhone.
