of course.. makes sense
|
|
Bye all. roland.hanbury@truphone.com if you want more...
|
|
Yes - call drops - just as it does on GSM when you go out of GSM range!
|
|
Alec ... what is your Truphone number?
|
|
thanks everyone
|
|
Thanks, Alec
|
|
k, ty Roland
|
|
Thanks guys.
|
|
@Ian: Yes.
|
|
Thanks!
|
|
@GREG: Curious to understand where and how your service provider contacts would be of value to us in the AMERICAS - which is my main focus
|
|
Thanks
|
|
Very nice, thank you Alec, James and Roland!
|
|
so the call just drops?
|
|
Handoff: Industry people always ask about this, customers never do!
|
|
Now to head away from my house (with WiFi) to see how the GSM side works.
|
|
Customers in countries in order of size : UK, US, Italy, Canada, India, Germany, Poland, Netherlands, Saudi Arabia, Spain... Total 152 countries
|
|
My self working with various application and service providers.
|
|
Good stuff.
|
|
had to go onto my 830 Nokia call, sorry
|
|
US SMS now working well AFAIK - local gateways etc.
|
|
Free calling to 40 countries was a launch offer, and as you say expires soon...
|
|
ROFL
|
|
@Greg: We can do this, but we actually don't log that much that isn't call or SMS related at the moment. e.g. we don't log location.
|
|
I agree Jonathan. It's a complete service...
|
|
Although I obviously haven't been able to use Truphone Anywhere yet but it appears to address the single biggest issue I could see with Truphone - didn't work outside WiFi. Strikes me as the most significant development to date.
|
|
Are you monitoring user behavior in the back ground? Key presses, affinity, location correlations etc.
|
|
well said Roland!
|
|
My experience of startup exits is that they are hardly ever the obvious buyer!
|
|
Truphone 4 installed on my N95.
|
|
Who is your likely head to head competiton in this segment. Fring? This begs who do you exit to?
|
|
Data SIM likely to have good rates in a selected range of countries (~40). Data rates comparable to local prepay, not better.
|
|
I've only been able to use it a couple of times. It doesn't like me apparently.
|
|
I love Truphone. Been using it for a year now.
|
|
Yay Jonathan!
|
|
V4 now installed on my E51. Looking good.
|
|
@Greg: Not really. It sits there on the wish list but no signs of getting to the top at the moment :-)
|
|
Any plans for multiple media, mostly video, photo's and graphics. Not a priority as much as curiosity.
|
|
Thank you :)
|
|
What was the patent for?
|
|
Yes, Sim4Travel is usable in the US
|
|
how about "crumbs!"
|
|
"Crikey"... a word we don't hear too often on this side of the pond. :-)
|
|
....and in the US? Is Sim4Travel usable in the US?
|
|
Its a sim card with callback to save on roaming<br/>Willi
|
|
@Wilhelm: Some other countries, and more to come
|
|
What is sim4travel? Simply mobility?
|
|
Roland,<br/>is Sim4Travel limited to UK numbers at present?
|
|
James, do you need an iPhone client?
|
|
Yes, upgrade should be easier than ever
|
|
I did :)
|
|
can't get back in Sheryl?
|
|
We also now make money via Sim4Travel calls (callback travel SIM)
|
|
Thank you
|
|
sheesh skype booted me!
|
|
Got it!
|
|
I Have a handset problem.
|
|
Truphone SMS works very well. Much cheaper for international SMS.
|
|
Truphone charges for calls, on a Prepay basis.
|
|
How does Truphone make money? You may have siad but I did not hear.
|
|
4G networks *could* be WiMAX, but also could be LTE.
|
|
Just waiting for the handset support ;-)
|
|
Hmmm... WiMAX does *NOT* equal "4G".
|
|
See T-MOBILE!
|
|
First part: We can update the access numbers from the server if they get blocked
|
|
Rocketalk once
|
|
T-Mobile blocked
|
|
Great question. Can the carriers turn them off?
|
|
Hi Roland. Is v4 on the website yet?
|
|
echo goes away
|
|
How do the carries react to this when you have interests in retail handset sales?
|
|
Yes, there is a menu item that tells you the call-through number so you can add to the my 5 list
|
|
muted I am
|
|
I'm muted
|
|
we have nasty echo coming over..I'm muted
|
|
We need someone to mute
|
|
Bad Echo!!!!
|
|
who's echoing?
|
|
echo on the line
|
|
We need to dispense with area codes and long-distance charges
|
|
But only if they SIM swap James!
|
|
I note the mention of both voice and SMS routing over the TruPhone IP connection? is this true?
|
|
As James gets himself in potential trouble...
|
|
Truphone.com down for the 4.0 release including Truphone Anywhere :-)
|
|
Yes, Alec, your solution is to get another carrier. ;-)
|
|
NIce tune
|
|
Truphone site: "Truphone.com is currently undergoing system maintenance"
|
|
James, FYI, if you put " http://" at the beginning of the URLs, Alec's software will turn it into a clickable link.
|
|
♫ Konference Karaoke?
|
|
It could be the Squawk Box theme song for today.
|
|
www.truphone.com/moo
|
|
Oh, no, is James going to sing?
|
|
I'm on only until 830, but have nothing to say
|
|
They're not popular in North America because we're a wireless backwater.
|
|
If you would like to speak, just let me know
|
|
Roland - I muted your line. Was getting some echo from it.
|
|
LOL
|
|
okay, 19 now
|
