Yep and he’s right.
But it will have a very small impact.
For the impact to grow the mobile needs to get smarter. ‘Smart phone’ are only a small part of the huge Mobile phone market, so out of those small number of smart phones, only a small number of people bother with VoIP.
The apps such as truphone are the ones that are going to make the little ripple in the huge voice pond. [via]

It makes a big difference for me on my Vodafone contract. It has now fallen to 88 minutes on 3G / GSM versus 700 before. My average per minute on Vodafone used to be 25 cent it is now 4 cent (using trupone and keeping the Vodafone SIM), overall they are going to get £4200 (Euro 6000, $8000) less money from my pocket as I have switched to Mobile VoIP (MVoIP) with truphone. It pays to be disciplined and look out for the calls being placed on WiFi.

Hi Trulover,
That’s great, but my point is you are one in a million of Vodafone’s subscribers using Truphone right now.
And you’ve obviously got a Nokia “smartphone” such as an N80ie or E61.
So good luck to you and I’m glad you like Truphone.
Thanks!
