The company Vonage Holdings Corp., a pioneer in Internet telephone service at home, announced that created software for use on iPhone and Blackberry devices that will reduce international call rates in major U.S. wireless service.
The free programs will allow U.S. users to make calls that are transferred through the Vonage network, at least at the international level.
As an example of their prices, Vonage allow a user to make a call to Colombia for five cents a minute, while AT & T charges $ 2.19 per minute or 17 cents a minute if the user purchased the international calling plan, costing $ 3.99 per month.
Calls are made at home for the cell phone using cellular plan minutes, although in the case of the iPhone will use Wi-Fi signal if available. The program also works with the iPod Touch, which only connects to the internet via Wi-Fi. Vonage will then connect the call to its final destination abroad.
The fact that Vonage program for the iPhone can be used as cellular voice channel is unusual.
Other programs of voice over Internet (VoIP) and programs for the iPhone and iPod Touch can already make calls over Wi-Fi, but the speech program, Google Inc., which is scheduled for the cellular network, has not been approved.
Google says its voice was rejected by Apple because it doubles the internal functions of the phone.
Vonage shares were at risk of being temporarily suspended by the stock market have fallen below a dollar, but rose 17 cents Monday (13 to $ 1.49 after the announcement of an international plan of free calls to 60 countries in its basic service.
