Just received the great news- finally we have mobile application to use VoIP technology on mobile phone!

I have installed it and tested, and can say that it's also works! From their site (fring.com):

fringâ„¢ uses your mobile internet connection to make peer-to-peer VoIP calls, send instant messages and talk with VoIP applications such as Skype, Google Talk and MSN Messenger at no extra cost.

I think so it's an end of high telephone bills, finally.
