Engin Offers Mobile VoIP With Nokia NSeries

Mon, 22 Jan 2007

Australian Internet telephony provider Engin today launched a Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) mobile phone service, partnering with handset manufacturer Nokia .

The broadband telephony company will supply low-cost un-timed calls through its wireless broadband technology and the Nokia N80 Internet Edition handset .

The new service will complement existing GSM and WCDMA infrastructure by making use of wireless LAN (local area network) broadband wherever it was available, the company said.

"People are increasingly using Internet Telephony to dramatically reduce the cost of their home phone . Already more than one in four people are regularly using their mobile devices to access the Internet which shows that the mass market is recognising the value of convergent devices," said Ilkka Tales, CEO of Engin.

"With the Nokia N80 Internet Edition you can seamlessly blend together surfing the web and making cost-efficient Internet calls," he said.

"With the proliferation of WiFi hot spots in the home, office and public areas, people have increasing access to use the Nokia N80 to make calls, no matter where they are over the Engin network at our lost cost call rates," said Tales.

David Watkins, Director of Multimedia Sales for Nokia's APAC region said, "Convergence is bringing more opportunities for consumers and Nokia's NSeries opens up the possibilities of the Internet going. Engin's VoIP Internet Phone service is a great example."
