Camera Phones Plaza

Did you all see how the general attention has been caught by one event and one event only, of which I’m sure you know very much about, as it’s on everyone’s lips? Don’t raise that eyebrow as if you didn’t know what I’m talking about, because you do and you also are captivated with the impressive display of forces that makes people so damn curious. CES. CES 2009. Ok, it’s possible you don’t know about it, but only if you’re not familiar with the technological development. Otherwise, give me the right to doubt it. Consumer Electronics Show from Las Vegas, Nevada. God, how these six words get on my nerves!



Anyway, the subject of this article has nothing to do with this event, but I wanted to express my joy in this respect. Truphone, “a mobile VoIP/internet telephony operator”, headquartered in London, United Kingdom, made one hell of an announcement a couple of days ago. The company introduced Skype calling, Twitter and Instant Messaging for the Apple handsets, more precisely the iPhones and iPods.

“The introduction of Skype calling and instant messaging represents yet another breakthrough for Truphone”, said Geraldine Wilson, Truphone CEO. In addition, she said that “what this means for Truphone’s customers is that they can now call or message all their Skype friends using their iPhone or iPod touch. This allows iPhone and iPod touch users to have a choice in how they stay in touch with friends and colleagues around the world – all within the one application”.



These new Truphone applications are expected to become available to interested customers starting January 12. This way, you’ll be able to get in touch with Skype friends using their Skype ID and you can catch up with your friends’ activity on Twitter, updating your posts in the same time.

The announcement was made at another well-known event, the Macworld 2009, held in San Francisco, USA.
