The Converging Network: Apple iPod Touch Set to Become VoIP Phone

Apple iPod Touch Set to Become VoIP Phone

Coming Tomorrow, January 1 - Make VoIP calls on the iPod Touch.

Three French developers have created a hack for the Apple iPod Touch that will allow it to be used as a VoIP phone. I have to assume they've added the SIP stack to the Touch and are using the WiFi connection on the iPod Touch to make VoIP calls.

Will Apple squash this French iPod VoIP Revolution and make bricks out of iPod Touch devices? Possible but since there's not a required ATT service agreement for the Touch like the iPhone there's not the same network restrictions.

Interesting idea, I can see the tagline now. Let your Apple iPod Touch reach out and touch someone! Ha, those craaaazy frenshhh peep-pulz!
