Re: [PLUG] one of the best things i've seen from nokia in a long time

I was actually shocked how well some SIP softphones work in PDA phones. 
When I vacation overseas, I use a SIP softphone on my Cingular cell phone 
thats runs windows mobile to call home. Finding wifi is easy, and the call 
quality aint bad. $0.02 a minute sure beats roaming at $2.00 a minute. 

I was thinking about using the ipod touch as a SIP phone - it has wifi and 
a speaker, but I dont think it has a mic - maybe bluetooth could resolve 
that.
