JAJAH Mobile Offers Free Calling from your Mobile Phone!

How would you like to make free calls from your mobile phone? I thought so. It might sound too good to be true, but JAJAH Mobile, announced at DemoFall 06, lets you inititate a JAJAH call directly from your mobile phone, either free or very inexpensively. Registered JAJAH users can go to the JAJAH site and check if your phone is supported, and if so get the plug-in which will allow your mobile calls to be JAJAH calls.

"The default setting takes numbers with an international prefix and sends them through the Jajah "network". The first phones we are going to support Java based (J2ME) and Symbian TM S60 version 7.x or 8.x phones and we'll be adding to the list as fast as we can. We are counting on our community to tell us what you think and to tell us what phones you'd like to have supported - we'll add them to the list. JAJAH Mobile is the next big step towards free telephony for everyone, everywhere, on any phone! These are good times for JAJAH and these are great times to be a JAJAH user."

TechCrunch adds:

"Once configured, the Jajah software handles certain types of calls made from the phone, bypassing the carrier entirely. When you place a call, Jajah routes the call to its own local number, moves the call over VOIP to the destination and calls the recipient via a local number where they are located."

If the new JAJAH Mobile service works as good as they say, it could shake things up in the Voip, Mobile, and Telecom industries who would probably prefer that JAJAH Mobile be kept secret.
