Packet8′s MobileTalk Keeps It Simple
Posted: December 2nd, 2007 | Author: Garrett Smith | Filed under: Mobile VoIP | 3 Comments »
One of the problems mobile VoIP service providers face over the coming months is educating consumers about their services. For many most mobile VoIP services are either too complex or too limited. Hopefully, many a mobile VoIP provider will follow Packet8 MobileTalk lead and make their service as easy as download, install and use. It works with over 400 different cellular phones, does not require a cellular data plan and offers very competitive rates. In other words it is simple, easy and gives consumers exactly what they want. I expect to this service become one of the most popular mobile VoIP services on the market.
Can packet eight eliminate my current mobile provider, for calls with in the U.S.?
I am glad to hear more positive feedback about our technology. I would be happy to find an opportunity to discuss our product roadmap with you in more detail.

Iron Mike,
The short answer is “no”. The way the technology works is:
1. An intelligent engine runs in the background of the handset and monitors all outgoing calls
2. When an outgoing call complies with the predefined “diversion rules†which in this case means an international number
3. The call is routed to Packet8′s access number, sends the PIN tones and the required destination number.
4. Call connected without the hassle
So you can see that you need the wireless provider to provide the leg from the phone to the access number.
