Convert Your iPod touch Into a Free Phone

It’s amazing what software can do. Take Truphone for the iPod touch, for instance. This free software can enable your favorite multimedia player to make phone calls. That’s right, Truphone for iPod touch lets you make free calls to other iPod touch owners without a SIM card, contract, or any fees.

You’ll need the software, along with a microphone adapter to use Truphone. The company intends to release its own mic very soon. With Truphone, iPod touch owners can make free worldwide calls to other iPod touch owners, to customers of Truphone's VoIP service, and to Google Talk users.

Additional features are coming soon as well, including:

• The ability to make and receive calls to and from landlines (PSTN) at low cost (using a Truphone account)
• Instant messaging to Skype and MSN (free)
• Calling to Skype users (free)
• Calling to MSN users (free)
• Check and set facilities for Twitter (free)
• Check and set facilities for Facebook (free)
