Webacall.com has launched a new service.
PIN-less calling card.
Listening to the needs of customers Webacall.com has added a
new enabling feature. The PIN-less calling card is bundled with the
VoIP account adding the ability to call one of the Calling
Card access numbers without
the need of a PIN. All that is required is the registration of the
phone number of your mobile or landline one is calling from, similar
to the ANI callback service. The registration should be in local
format not international. Thus when one calls his/her number is
authorised automatically and may proceed with calling the desired
destination. This is a true enabler for people on the move who can
now use Webacall.com at home or the office but also use the same
account over their mobile phones when out.
For more
information you may visit the Webacall.com website.

There's been considerable talk about VoIP services
one the iPhone. With the release of the iPhone SDK, it was just a
matter of time before native applications for the iPhone started
cropping up. And, it looks like leading VoIP provider fring has managed
to beat out the competition by launching the first ever VoIP
application for the iPhone.
fring says that their natively installed VoIP client for the iPhone
is a "special pre-release R&D version of fring" created in
conjunction with the Holon Institute of Technology academic research
labs. The point of this release is to get feedback on the application
in preparation for a full-blown, final release version later this year.
You'll need a jailbroken iPhone and access to Installer.app (this is a native application, after all), so get to jailbreaking your iPhone if you haven't already done so.

The VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) or 'Internet Telephony'
facility has been every jabber's dream come true. While people can
commonly use this facility through the good-old PC, they could only
wish to access this facility through a regular "non-smart phone", until
now.
TringMe, an Indian-based firm that earlier developed a VoIP
service for Smart phones, has now extended its service to basic,
low-end mobile phones. To avail this 'Push & Talk' service, all one
needs to do is send an SMS to TringMe.

We've been hearing for years that widely-used VoIP systems may hold
large numbers of exploitable vulnerabilities, but a new report isolates
over 100 specific flaws that researchers have found in the applications.
According to VoIPshield Labs -- the research division of VoIPshield,
which markets security software for use in protecting Internet calling
tools -- the issues unearthed in some of the most popular VoIP software packages,
made by companies including Avaya, Cisco and Nortel, represent proof
that such technologies require far more scrutiny by security experts
and business users.
Among the flaws listed in the firm's new database of VoIP security
threats are those that could be used for unauthorized access, code
execution, denial of service or information harvesting attacks. |

VoIP calling is
on the rise. It used to be that Skype was the only service that people
were using to place low-cost or no-cost international calls through
their computers. But these days there are dozens of providers that can
connect you to others using phones that are routed through the
Internet. As mobile broadband gets increasingly popular, VoIP is
starting to find a new platform on the mobile phone. And as this
industry grows, providers need to compete with each other to offer the
best calling features at the lowest cost.
In a competitive market like this one, the consumer is able to
demand the services that he or she wants from the phone company. Here
are the top 25 VoIP calling features that you should make sure are
included in your VoIP calling plan:
