TruPhone app: Use your iPod Touch to make Calls
The iPod Touch may look like the iPhone and provide a similar user experience, but it obviously lacks mobile phone functionality. That was before the TruPhone app hit the scene.
This nifty little application allows iPod Touch users to make phone calls through the internet not only to other TruPhone users (free), but also to other mobile phones and landline numbers as well with a corresponding fee. It also allows you to send SMS and make free calls to Google Talk PC users as well. Of course, this is only possible if you’re connected to a WiFi network and have a headset attached to it, but nevertheless, the availability of such an application definitely adds some added functionality to the iPod Touch that others have yet to offer. Unfortunately, this only works with 2G iPod Touch models so the greater majority of us who are still clinging on to their 1G iPod Touch are left out on all the fun.
The TruPhone app is completely free of charge and is now available at the App Store. Downloading and installing the app is the easy part. Finding a compatible headset for your iPod Touch, however, is more of a challenge. There are also versions of the TruPhone app for Nokia and BlackBerry phones available as well as for the iPhone so you can get in touch with more friends without spending a single cent.





sorry, im not getting into the fray of getting this one, including joining the iphone craze. the new htc touch hd is more than a wise investment, the new htc phone makes all others look — pathetic and collector’s items. drool over.
