Fring launches iPhone VoIP client

15 April 2008

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.
