Today, JAJAH joins Truphone in bringing voice calling functionality to the iPod Touch. The service will allow for SMS text messages as well as low-cost phone calling on a Touch over WiFi.
I mention Truphone not just because they offer a similar service, but because they offer it differently. With Truphone, you can directly download their application from the AppStore to your Touch and get calling. Today’s news out of JAJAH doesn’t include an AppStore title that consumers can download. Instead, JAJAH is offering their technology to carriers or non-carriers who can brand it and offer it for a fee. I can see jkOnTheRun branding all over this one, with a special direct tip line for hot news…
