Tpad joins forces with Nokia to launch Mobile VoIP Calls on Nokia S40 Mobiles

Tpad today announced the availability of an automated VoIP service that will set
up a WiFi or 3G enabled mass-market Nokia mobile to bring free or low cost mobil
e VoIP calls to millions.
This move is intended to vigorously compete with other VoIP telephony companies
such as Skype, Vonage, Gizmo5 and Google Voice by giving non-technical users the
chance to benefit from the free internet call revolution.
The new automated service has been designed to remove the need for any complicat
ed set up procedures that put novice users off VoIP calling. At Tpad, set up is
easy and fast, customers simply create a free VoIP / SIP account and then they w
ill automatically receive personal VoIP / SIP settings that will instantly confi
gure their Nokia phone with Tpad.
Nokia's configuration service is currently configured for Nokia's latest S40 ran
ge of mobile phones that include 6086, 6136, 6301, 6300i, 6260, C3-01 and the ne
w touch and type X3-02 model.
Mobile calls between Tpad users are free worldwide if the calls are routed over
their WiFi Connection. All other PSTN calls from the user's WiFi / 3G to any oth
er landlines or mobiles in the world will be charged at the usual low Tpad call
rates.
Tpad integrates seamlessly with Nokia S40 mobiles using the existing address boo
k, so there's no need to retype your contacts from scratch. Once set up to use a
WiFi hotspot, the mobile connects automatically next time the phone is in range
to enable internet calling.
The beauty of this service is that no special software is needed, as it uses the
inbuilt software that Nokia already has pre-installed. The user simply picks Tp
ad from the pre-populated VoIP provider list and enters their Tpad number and pa
ssword. This ensures that there will be full compatibility with trouble free usa
ge to make cheap internet calls.
Steven Johns, Tpad's Marketing Manager, said: "Tpad is at the forefront of the n
atural evolution of VoIP. First people began talking via a headset and PC, then
they were tied to a fixed line IP phone device and now the next evolutionary ste
p is Tpad mobile VoIP. Internet trouble-free calling has finally arrived on mass
market Nokia mobiles."
Johns continued: "We are giving all new users who sign up for a free Tpad VoIP a
ccount a free test call to the value of $0.10 for a limited period. This will gi
ve users the chance to experience the call quality of next generation mobile VoI
P.
"For example, with this free credit you can make a 5 minute call to any mobile i
n USA using our ultra low VoIP call rates. Of course calls between Tpad users ar
e 100% free all the time. If you combine this with features such as call forward
ing, free local DID numbers, compatibility with any SIP device (e.g. IP Phone, A
TA, Softphone) we are at the forefront of the new wave of VoIP companies."
Using this Nokia service Tpad's current UK hosted business customers can use the
ir Tpad PBX telephone system from the "Cloud" - servers housed in highly secure,
geographically redundant data centers, to benefit from remote homeworking and c
all features such as follow me and call forwarding.
