    Did you try googling, or are you doing a spot of viral marketing? :D

    Yeah right.. ! Ha-ha !! No "viral marketing" (what ever that is) here !

    And I have tried googling it! But I am just a little skeptical.. so if someone have tried before me... that would be good.. if you know what I'm saying hurrah??

    Why don't you try it and post your findings. Just a thought.

    For many people, moving outside the wi-fi area and using a grps connection would be more expensive in data consumption than switching to an ordinary phone call.

    :j Yeah !! Just tried Barablu’s software with my friend from Norway. It is working great! Earlier I had to sit by my computer to talk with my friends. But now I can talk with them anywhere as long as I have a wi-fi connection! Great or what? I was afraid that you would have to pay something, but you just have to pay if you are not calling over the internet. They actually route your call to your friend over the Internet whenever you are using barablu on a mobile, instead of through the more traditional mobile operator, or landline route. This is how you get to call for free !! Same as Skype offers from computer to computer I think??? or?

    I have wi-fi connection at school and at my student home, but does anyone know where I can find free wi-fi connections, when I am in the city? (I live in London)
    And does it work well then?

    ok, but I can still use Barablu when I am in a wi-fi sone, and just use my regular mobile operator when I am not.. it will still save me loads of money?? it is so expensive to call to countrys outside the Uk, with my regular oparator:tongue::tongue::tongue::tongue:

    When outside a wi-fi area, you might also be interested in using callthrough numbers from your contract inclusive minutes on some networks.
