Truphone -- the world's first 4g network operator

Picture_14_2 I found Truphone from yet another Craigslist job posting — they’re after a savvy marketer.

So, the world’s first 4g network operator, eh?  Interesting stuff.  They’re in beta at the moment.  I signed up — but I don’t have the right Nokia (or Windows Mobile) handset to properly play yet.  Although I’ve got a N70 somewhere gathering dust that I could probably resurrect. 

You can register for the beta here.  Here’s some text from their about page:

Truphone is helping to harness the wireless network that we have all built to provide a new type of mobile service. This will allow you to make free and very low-cost calls from Wi-Fi or Bluetooth enabled smart phones via the Internet.

Truphone will be available on as many phones as possible, including the new mass-market, Wi-Fi phones.

Truphone is a new type of mobile operator based upon software developed by Software Cellular Network (SCN Ltd.). It is funded by its employees, Business Angels and Venture Capital.
