We've finally moved in to spanking brand new premises on the banks of the Thames in central London. We're proud of our farm origins and we'll always keep the office there for getaways, but we've grown in size quite a bit over the last 12 months and frankly it was getting to be a bit of a squeeze getting us all in.
So we're in London and the view is fantastic. Here's a shot taken on a Nokia E65 out of the window this morning. That's Tower Bridge being raised to let through a rather impressive frigate.
We've got great news for all Truphone customers! We're pleased to announce that we've extended our launch offer of free landline calls until the 30th June 2007.
But that's not all - users EVERYWHERE can now get FREE calls to landlines (and some mobiles) in 40 countries around the world. The countries are:
Argentina, Australia, Austria, Belgium, Brazil (Rio de Janeiro & Sao Paulo only), Canada, Chile, China (Landline and Mobile), Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, France, Germany, Greece, Guam, Hong Kong (Landline & Mobile), Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Korea (South), Luxembourg, Malaysia, Mexico (Guadalajara, Mexico City & Monterrey only), Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Panama City, Poland, Portugal, Puerto Rico, Russia (Moscow Central & St Petersburg only), Singapore (Landline & Mobile), Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Taiwan, Thailand, United Kingdom, US Virgin Islands and USA (landline & mobile)
Phew! We've even made a rather silly video too
Outside of these free countries, we've found that some call rates have gone up and some have gone down. If you're a user in the UK, you can see country tariffs here, or if you're in the US or elsewhere, you can check here for call rates.
We were delighted to find out today that we've been selected as a recipient of a Red Herring 100 Europe award. We knew we were on the long-list, but yea we made the cut!
Red Herring selects the top 100 private technology companies based in the EMEA region and consequently getting on this list is pretty special.
Thank you very much.
OK, so we couldn't resist the Herring/fish pun with 'lands', but at least we didn't go with 'nets'
We're very excited to announce that we've been selected as one of the companies in the 2007 Pulver 100.
Companies named in the Pulver 100 have been identified as representing the future of IP communications 'that have substantial real-world deployments and enjoy significant growth rates. The Pulver 100 has become an indicator of the leading edge in IP communications, and the companies named to the 2007 Pulver 100 represent the future of the IP communications industry.'
It is now possible, using official Nokia software, to upgrade most Nokia N80s to Nokia N80 Internet Edition. This irons out many bugs and gives your phone a whole host of new features, including the ability to run Truphone.
