Posted by: Jenny in VoIP, VoiP Equipments, iphone, mobile on June 3rd, 2010
The success of Apple’s launch for iPhone and iPad has gave way to tremendous change in iPhone and iPad users’ perspective in using internet access for better savings. Getting these Apple gadgets now are no longer a luxury but for practicality. With the use of VoIP technology, iPhone and iPad users now can save up to 50% or more with their phone bills.
When you get iPhone, you would be able to maximize your usage with the 3G and Wifi features. These features will help you to have internet access so you can use VoIP service. All you just need to do then is to download the SIP application in AppStore , and register your SIP Line from your voip provider. Once your SIP line is registered, you can starting making calls via voip gateway at a rate cheaper than your mobile provider is charging. You have the option to use either voip or mobile for both incoming and outgoing calls.
Below are the instructions on how to register your SIP line on your iPhone:
Download Sip Application from Appstore.
Open the application and go into the Accounts tab. Click on edit and then enter in my ID
Fill the SIP username and password (provided by your VoIP provider) and save.
Activate the account and return to the dialer, if the SIP button is green you can call via VoIP.
Skype Calls No Longer Free by 2011

iPhone users in the US who have found ways to save calls through Skype will not be happy with the news that AT&T will be charging Skype to Skype calls by 2011. AT&T, which has the exclusive right to market iPhone in the US, has not yet disclosed as to how much would be the charges for Skype calls. Currently, Skype to Skype call are free thus it would clog up the AT&T network.
Once AT&T will charge Skype calls, this might directly affect iPhone user’s interest to use Skype. Skype users might decide to switch to use VoIP which provides free calls to the same VoIP network. With the users’ option to replace Skype with other VoIP, it will be more of a loss to Skype than AT&T. VoIP will still require DATA access thus AT&T will still earn for the DATA services they offered to AT&T subscribers.
Is the clogging of AT&T network the only reason why AT&T will charge Skype to Skype calls or is it because Skype and Verizon’s current partnership will turn to be an exclusive partnership in the future? There are speculations that Skype and Verizon’s exclusive partnership will last for 3 to 3 years, and no other US carrier will be able to get what Skype has to offer.

iPad Release Creates More Demand for Mobile Internet
What’s the use of iPad with out internet connection? You cannot access applications and digital content with out internet connection. The release of iPad in the market has certainly increased the demand for mobile data services.
With the success of iPad, competitors will surely release their own version of iPad which will cater to people from all walks of life. In few months time, competing companies will have the almost same product with almost similar features and with the rates much appealing to the market.
This is the much awaited scenario by mobile providers; people using iPad have no choice but to get their Mobile Data package. “These factors will drive demand for data access, and the iPad along with similar devices provide a compelling new opportunity for mobile operators to increase data subscriptions and hence revenues,” As per Jan ten Sythoff from cellular-news. They cannot deny the fact that the existence of VoIP technology had knocked them down, and the release of iPad has given them so much favor to recover the lost revenue.
