    Mobile VoIP Services by Talkster

    December 11th, 2006

    Toronto based business mobility company Talkster Inc. It unveils network that consolidates the communications services people use everyday on a device they already have and take everywhere they go – the Mobile Phone

    As an important component of the company’s forthcoming enterprise communications service, the Talkster network connects mobile phones to VoIP networks and devices without phone numbers, such as IP-PBX office phones provisioned inside a corporate IP network.

    It is first service to let people place free calls from their cell phones to instant messaging services like MSN, Google Talk and Gizmo Project, consolidates the many voice-based communications services people use every day into an easy-to-use service that works from a single familiar device: the mobile phone. The Talkster beta service showcases Talkster’s Web services-based technology, the foundation for Talkster’s enterprise service offering, coming in 2007.

    There are only two steps to make a call to your buddies or any telephone number using Talkster:

      1. Choose the person with whom you want to speak. This can be a buddy from your buddy list or a telephone number for one of your contacts.
      Once you have chosen where to call, Talkster sends a signal off to the Talkster VoIP network to initiate the call.
      2. Depending on your settings, Talkster either triggers your phone to call in to one of our local access gateways, or calls you back on your phone.
      Once your call is connected over the standard cellular voice network to our gateway, your contact’s phone or instant messenger client will ring on the other end and you are talking – just like you would in a regular phone call.

    To sign-up for the free beta test at Talkster.
