What is Fring! Another disruption in VoIP space!

VoIP IP Telephony @ http://snapvoip.blogspot.com

It looks like Skype for mobile phones! and according to the Fring website, Fring is;
"fring™ uses your mobile internet connection to make peer-to-peer VoIP calls, send instant messages and talk with VoIP applications such as Skype, Google Talk and MSN Messenger at no extra cost.
fring™ is based on a unique thin-client technology that for the first time enables true VoIP over 3G, GPRS and Wi-Fi networks. fring™ dynamically adapts itself to the optimal network and handset characteristics while enabling seamless roaming VoIP on multiple networks. The dedicated three-sided P2P network architecture has been developed to support near telco-grade voice quality and network efficiency."

Well seems like some good way to make use of those mobile phones. Also it might be way to make Mobile networks mad at us make the contracts be rewritten. And may provide a way to jump off those binding contracts the mobile providers use to keep you near and dear.

I also visited their Blog, which gave me additional information. There is a video on youtube about Fringe. The is done by SKY news and I an sure will catch up like wild fire.
I will try on my cell tomorrow, it is late now.
