VOIP client software available

Motricity Germany and Optimobile have released Optimobile`s VOIP client software UniPhone, reports SymbianOne.

The ability to make Internet telephony calls is subject to the end-user having access to a WLAN broadband connection and a subscription with a relevant provider of IP telephony services.

UniPhone follows the SIP-standard and uses the WLAN radio interface for wireless calls over broadband.

Sixty percent of Irish small and medium-sized businesses (SMEs) plan to invest in VOIP technology in the next six months, reports Silicon Republic.

According to communications technology firm Cisco`s own research, there is demand for the new technology.

"We are currently experiencing solid demand from SMEs, particularly around our unified communications portfolio," said Cisco country manager Michael Galvin.

Adam Internet has released a VOIP service in partnership with ISPhone Australasia, reports ComputerWorld.

The service, called AdamTalk, is available to Adam Internet`s ADSL broadband customers. The service will carry a monthly fee of $5, with a $5 call credit.

Phone calls will be untimed and will be charged from 12c for local and standard calls. VOIP calls to other AdamTalk customers will be free of charge.
