Fring for mobile is very cool...
Fring is a pretty interesting application for mobile devices that melds together a number of communication services into one. In concept and technology it is not new as a few others have done this, but Fring brought it to the mobile device.
Fring also allows you to sign up to a SIP server - or provider partner that they have listed, such as VoipCheap.com. Therefore, you can very easily make cheap international calls via Wifi via your mobile device - or us Skype-out.
What makes Fring cool is that it is simple. It also connects to the mobile devices contacts and allows them to be used to make calls via the SIP accounts.
I have tested this on a Softbank Windows Mobile device - and it does as expected.
Skype is well used by many of my contacts, so it is quite handy to continue chats while on the road.
With the new Flash coming, it is said to be more mobile-friendly and allow a lot more applications to offer services, including VoIP - as we are hoping with Flashphone. Maybe this is where Fring can't expand - into the web as well as mobile.
What we need are many more Wifi connections around town.
