Global mobile network operator Truphone has launched a beta of its mobile internet telephony service, Truphone Anywhere, for BlackBerry smartphones.
Truphone Anywhere works in 33 countries worldwide and saves BlackBerry users from those countries money on the international calls they make from their home country. The service works alongside domestic service providers, but reduces international call costs.
"There's no GSM business tariff that gets close to the prices we can offer BlackBerry users with Truphone for international calling," said Geraldine Wilson, new CEO of Truphone. "And in these days of financial belt-tightening, businesses are looking at every means of cutting costs, which is an opportunity for us."
