Good free solution for international calls anywhere you can find internet access.

I recommend Truphone over Fring. The connection seems better, the rates are the same or better now (1.8 cent/min to mobile or landline, 20 cent/SMS txt msg, and calling Truphone to Truphone is now a freebie). Your real phone number shows up on the receiving end's caller id.

I've tried both on my iPhone and Truphone is better, hands down. Now, on my laptop, its Skype or MagicJack.


Clarification, Truphone is 6 cent/min, unless you pay the $4/month Trusaver plan. Somewhere in there is a break even point! Still better reception and clarity than Fring, IMO.

Also, if allows you to update twitter
