How to create phone calls on your Apple iPad

As the iPad was 1st unveiled back in January, a lot of detractor have complained that the much-hyped tablet device is really just an oversized iPhone, without the iPhone part.

Stephen Colbert so astutely noted, "If you've got an iPhone by now, the iPad will be very recognizable to you. The same touch screen technology. The same applications and just like the iPhone, you can't make calls with it."

Ha! really, scratch that last part. This week, a company called Truphone has released an iPad app which basically allows iPad owner to wield their gadget like a giant iPhone. Truphone is a VoIP application. similar to Skype, it harnesses the power of the Web to go around traditional phone lines.

According to Truphone, everyone calls to other Truphone, Skype, or Google Talk users be free; you pay a really low rate to call a landline otherwise mobile phone - five cents per minute in the US, less if you sign up for a monthly plan. The iPad version of Truphone - the app is also obtainable on the iPhone - uses the built-in speaker and mic on the iPad to relay calls.

But let's face it, folks: by the Apple iPad like an Apple iPhone is jump to look really, really silly. The tablet device, for one, measures some 9 inches by 7 inches. It's large, it's important, and no one wants to hold that thing up to their head. Over at TechCrunch, John Biggs films himself by the Truphone, and admit that it all makes for "the most ridiculous talking knowledge you’ve ever seen."



Click on the video and see for yourself. Or verify out some of our prior story about VoIP apps on Apple plans. Late last month, for example, Line2 was yanked from the iTunes store after a hacker attack. And previous that, Apple and Google scuffle over Google Voice.

33 internet voip providers to roll out voice services

VoIP users connected to the internet through local broadband service providers (ISPs) can now talk to each other and telecom subscribers, as the telecom regulator made a tariff directive to commercially launch IP VoIP telephony services.

Under VoIP tariff plan, 33 licensees, known as internet protocol telephony service providers (IPTSPs), can now sell voice services.

Service providers can charge a maximum of Tk 0.20 a minute for domestic IPTSP to IPTSP calls and a maximum of Tk 2 for a call from IPTSP to any mobile or landline operator, in line with a Bangladesh Telecommunication Regulatory Commission (BTRC) directive.

However, the minimum airtime charge for calls from IPTSP to any mobile or landline operator will not be below Tk 0.65 a minute, according to the BTRC.

For international outgoing calls, IPTSP will have to follow the rates for international calls, as issued earlier by BTRC.

However, the new tariff directive frustrates IP telephony licence holders, as such charges will not be financially viable. Different telecom operators are charging lower than the tariff set for IPTSP.

"If we offer IPTSP to IPTSP calls almost free of cost, it will help boost internet penetration," said Akhtaruzzaman Manju, president of Internet Service Providers Bangladesh.

In addition, other IP-based voice services to other operators will not be viable due to the uncompetitive tariff directive, he said. "It's not a very good proposition in terms of tariff."

It would have been better if the per minute charge was fixed between Tk 0.30 to Tk 0.60, said Manju.

The services are to be value-added services at low costs, it will gain popularity in some areas such as intra-company communication, he said.

IP telephony licence owners can provide PC (personal computer) to phone, phone to PC, phone to phone or any other use to subscribers, based on the IP telephony voice service.

From a technical point of view, experts said, the voice over internet protocol (VoIP) is set to open through legal channels as IP and VoIP technologies have nearly the same features.

BTRC last year made a guideline to award IP voip telephony licences exclusively to local ISPs. Customers now can talk by using their broadband connection just after installing a modem for voice transmission.

Currently, more than five lakh broadband users are connected through local ISPs. On the other hand, mobile operators claimed more than 40 lakh are connected via mobile internet phone. Bangladesh's internet phone service penetration rate is only 4 percent.

Abdus Salam, who is the managing director of Agni Systems Ltd, an IP telephony licensee, said: "We should not charge extra for voice as our customers already have to pay for an internet connection."

He said that people should be permitted to use the technology first.

"We trust it will soon become popular as it is affordable."

Apple's latest iPod a VOIP phone in disguise

The worst kept secret in home electronics was officially exposed by Apple Inc. yesterday when the company announces its latest iPod Touch, which is an iPod that looks closely like the iPhone, but can't be used to make phone calls yet.


And I say yet because the attractive thing about this new Apple iPod is that it is Wi-Fi compatible which means it may be able to run Skype or a new type of Voice Over Internet Protocol phone program soon.


Not being able to use an iPod on a wireless network has been a big slam next to the device in the past. Other company's product such as Microsoft Corp.'s Zune player and Archos Inc.'s line of Wi-Fi product have all been able to use wireless networks to surf the Internet and replace files. The new iPod sports a large colour screen for presentation album information or videos and it comes bundled with Apple's Safari browser for surfing the Internet. The latest device does away with the iPod's brand click-wheel technology, which made the device popular in the first place. In order to navigate the device a user just touches the screen.

The big statement here was the inclusion of the Wi-Fi capabilities. The reason this is a big statement is because less than a day after revealing the plans people are already talking about how to make the devices capable of Voice Over Internet Protocol (VOIP) calling. It's not a stretch, the device is capable of accessing the Internet, all it would take is a piece of software that allows the iPod to run Skype and the new iPod Touch become an iPhone with minimal service fees and subscription costs as long as the user was located within a wireless hotspot. Skype is already available for iPhone, so putting it on the iPod shouldn't be difficult. Consider the push that many municipality are putting on Wi-Fi connections, it won't be long before most major municipalities are blanketed with Wi-Fi coverage.


The new iPod touch will retail for between $299 and $399. While Apple wouldn't admit it, I am sure the opportunity of seeing the iPod used as a VOIP phone was one of the major factors that saw the iPhone's price slashed by $200 to $399 yesterday. The cost cut comes only three months after people lined up for days to come for the new plans to go on sale. More cuts are likely in the coming months, the iPhone is a cash cow for Apple with some analyst estimating the company is raking in a 50 per cent profit margin on each unit sold. So, if you've been waiting to buy your iPhone you may be rewarded with a lower price and when the iPod Touch is finished able to perform VOIP calling, you will end up with a choice of which device to buy.
