sipgate offers VoIP service for iPhone

Filed under: ,

San Francisco-based sipgate, Inc. is offering software for your jailbroken iPhone to build and receive VoIP calls using any SIP-compatible VoIP service. The service appears to be similar to those offered by Fring and PhoneGnome.

The service is in early beta stage, with several caveats mentioned on its FAQ page. You won’t be alerted to incoming calls unless the software is running, which drains the battery with some quickness. The company plus promises revisions for the upcoming App Store. It’s unclear whether the setup suffers the same kind of delay and echo problems that other VoIP solutions do.

Plus, it may eat your firstborn. Seriously. It says it right there.

If you’re interested in evaluating out the product, sipgate is plus throwing in 111 free minutes whether you sign up for their own VoIP service.

The software is free, and requires iPhone firmware 1.1.4.

Thanks, Martin!
