VOXOFON International Calling Now Available on Android Phones
HOUSTON, Nov. 10 /PRNewswire/ -- VOXOFON's transparent, budget-friendly service for roaming and international calls on mobile phones using the new Android(TM) platform* is now available from Android Market, the official distribution channel for applications on Android phones.
Customers who downloaded the beta version onto their T-Mobile G1(TM) phone have praised the application's transparency and ease of use. Users can place calls as usual using the phone's Dialer or Contacts. When an international call is detected, the VOXOFON window pops up, listing options and rates. VOXOFON needs no WiFi zone; it works wherever there is mobile phone coverage.
Current G1 phone owners can download the VOXOFON application on the device by clicking on the "Market" icon for a list of Android applications. In addition, VOXOFON's website, http://www.voxofon.com/, has a special section with a short video showing how to use the service.
Alexey Goloshubin, president and CEO of VOXOFON, sees his application as encouraging international callers to use their mobile phones.
"At present, most people who own mobile phones still make international calls via landlines, calling cards or computer VoIP services," Goloshubin said. "With inexpensive and easy-to-use options such as VOXOFON's Android application, we expect an increasing number of people to use their mobile phones for calls abroad. It's much more convenient."
VOXOFON offers the widest range of options for low-cost international calling. Beginning at 1.3 cents per minute, with no additional fees, VOXOFON customers can make calls using their computer, their land line, their cell phone or a smart phone, such as the G1 or an iPhone, for which the company also offers a special application. For calls from a PC, there is no need to download any special software, and VOXOFON works on both Windows and Linux systems with Java runtime installed. For calling card users, VOXOFON customers can use their accounts as virtual calling cards.
All VOXOFON services are available under a single account, providing customers with the flexibility to use the service they find most convenient.
VOXOFON LLC is based in Houston, Texas. For more information or a free test call, go to http://www.voxofon.com/.
