Instant Messaging launches on Truphone for the iPhone

Truphone for the iPhone has today been upgraded, with some exciting new features!

These new features are:

1. Instant Messaging (IM)*
You can have two-way IM conversations with MSN Messenger, Yahoo! Messenger and Google Talk users.

2. Google Talk Calls
You can now make and receive calls using Google Talk.

3. Twitter Integration
If you have a Twitter account you can tweet to your heart’s content, and see your friend’s latest tweets.

The app will update automatically, so if you already have the app you won't need to do a thing. If you don't yet have Truphone for the iPhone, and want it, you can download it for free.

As announced at Macworld, we plan to introduce Skype calling and IM on Truphone for the iPhone very shortly. We are as keen as you to get this exciting new feature out and are also well aware that everyone is anxious to experience Skype on Truphone, but given we’re not completely happy with the user experience at the moment we’re reluctant to launch that piece of the suite at this stage. Our engineers are working flat out to resolve this issue and we expect to make Skype available for you as soon as we possibly can.

*You may incur third party data and call costs when not in Wi-Fi, so look out for those. Roaming charges may apply when not in your home country.

Truphone is a mobile VoIP/internet telephony operator. It provides Symbian software and a network infrastructure that allows people to make telephone calls and send SMS text messages over the internet from WiFi-enabled Nokia Series 60 smartphones. A version for the Apple iPhone and iPod Touch was also released in July 2008. Calls and SMS texts to other online Truphone users are free, and calls or texts to other numbers are chargeable.

This is really good for my iPhone friends. I am thinking about buying the latest version, but it's quite expensive yet I think..- Ray

If you can hold something up and put it down, it is calledweight-lifting; if you can hold something up but can never put it down,it's called burden-bearing. Pitifully, most of people are bearing heavyburdens when they are in love .

Your article is very informative and the use of graphics adds to the understanding of the process. I think some of his sentences are too long, and missing commas are minor. One thing I learned, never end a sentence with a preposition.
