Free has launched a small bomb which will not make Orange happy at all. On a dedicated page (http://sip.free.fr/)they offer SIP software that can be installed on a jailbroken (unlocked) iPhone. It allows the user to call for free or at a very low price as long as the device is connected to Wi - Fi. For the moment, the software is reserved for the iPhone and Free. Soon it will be open for everyone and all SIP programs and also the iPod SIP Touch as long as you add the microphone developed by TouchMods. [Update] -- The install crashes currently. However, it is possible for insiders to install the application using SSH. It can be downloaded at the following address: http://sip.free.fr/releases/Siphon.app.zip -- The SIP preferences are not saved with the 1.1.3 firmware -- The application fails if the SIP is incorrectly configured -- It seems one has to use the hands-free to access the telephone. In short, the very promising application that requires a lot of work. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Session_Initiation_Protocol -- The Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) is an application-layer control (signaling) protocol for creating, modifying, and terminating sessions with one or more participants. It can be used to create two-party, multiparty, or multicast sessions that include Internet telephone calls, multimedia distribution, and multimedia conferences. [translation by jeremy]
