Americans make 6.2 billion overseas phone calls per year

From only 20 million to 6.2 billion overseas calls today, per year.

Packet8 MobileTalk is an application which you can download onto your mobile phone. Apparently the app supports Symbian, Palm, Windows Mobile, and even the Apple iPhone. So I guess what this service does is that it allows the call to pass through Packet8’s own VoIP network to make the calls much cheaper.

Offering rates such as $.01 per minute to China, $.03 per minute to the U.K., $.03 per minute to Mexico and $.059 per minute to India, the Packet8 MobileTalk service removes the barriers associated with existing carrier, calling card and call back services that often discourage the use of cell phones for overseas calling. These include obstacles such as costly per minute rates, poor call quality, cumbersome dialing procedures and unreliable service availability.
