IM+ Talk

It wasn’t too long ago when we mentioned what the folks at SHAPE Services were up to. Okay, okay, it was a brief mention, but the thought of VoIP over 3G/EDGE should have tickled your fancy. IM+ Talk is now out of beta and sporting a new version – 4.3! Here’s what the change log tells us:

Version 4.3

  • VoIP over 3G/EDGE support
  • Special build for 6.0 OS devices
  • Many bugfixes and overall performance optimization

Check out some of the features of IM+ Talk:

  • Call Skype users to their PCs - With IM+ Talk for BlackBerry you can talk with other Skype users all over the world.
  • Free VoIP calls in WiFi areas and over 3G/EDGE - In WiFi areas and over 3G/EDGE IM+ Talk allows users to make free VoIP calls in half-duplex mode, similar to a walkie-talkie.
  • Make cost-effective calls to any destination - Call any landline or mobile phone cost effectively. IM+ Talk uses callback technology, which ensures best phone call quality anywhere in the world.
  • Receive calls from Skype contacts and calls to your SkypeIn number
  • See who is online and chat with Skype users - Have conversations with other users who are logged in with their Skype accounts on PC or mobile. Text messaging is cost effective way to say something to your contacts instead of sending an SMS.

The idea of being able to make free VoIP calls via 3G/EDGE or Wi-Fi should make you want to call everyone and tell them all about it. Why not; it’s free as long as you select “VoIP only” or “VoIP preferred”. For more information on saving with IM+ Talk, click here. IM+ Talk is available for $29.95 and is available to BlackBerrys running OS 4.3 or higher.

Contest:We have 20 copies of IM+ Talk to give away. All you have to do is leave a comment on this post to be entered. Perhaps you can tell us who you talk to the most - how much money do you think you will save? Basically, tell us why you think you deserve IM+ Talk! Contest ends this Sunday at midnight PST. Please only leave one comment, multiple entries won't count.

Certainly one platform for all messages is great as well as being able to make free VoIP calls is the added bonus.

Steelpr1

I want a copy! AWesome features!

Love the IM+ Lite App to keep up with all my IM'ing from one easy app. This would be awesome for staying in touch with my wife and four kids and the inlaws who live far away. Yes, I love my inlaws too.

con4n007

One copy pls pls pls!!

always_On_point

Would love to add this to my phone. :)

Belbarid

Is this true VoIP, or the kinda VoIP but still uses your minutes "VoIP". Vendors (and I'm looking at you, Verizon) often try to hide the difference.

But I still want a copy. It's new and shiny. :)

jza95

Please send me a copy! Thanks!!

beanyman

This would be awsome to have especially for an international.

auditman

i used voip alot lets test this on my torch

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

Nephiko

Dent4DA08

This app would be so cool for my Bold 9650! ^_^

pepperpiper

i talk the most to the person most special to me. i think i would save like a million dollars because once i have this call over edge, i wouldn't make her sleep, i would call her all day and all night, even if our timezones are apart. will call her on our break time, would sneak out of the office for a lil while just to chit chat with her. i want this app!!!

dansan87

I got+Pro full lincesed! I purchased the app long this year and I'm interesting in buying this one as well, perhaps I would purchase 2 but if you guys can help me with one then I would only have to purchase the one, me and my girlfirnd....

Help'
Thanks

tehmole

thehawkins

This does look like a great app. I'd use it for calling home while abroad and it'd give me an excuse to be a little more chatty with my friends in other countries. US to South Africa/Australia is expensive on T-Mobile. Does IM+ Talk have the same chat functionality as IM+?

Larsvegas

IM+ Talk? awesome!!... I'd love to have a copy

kaotik_187

Can i please have an early Xmas gift from crackberry!!! This app would help me alot!! i would be able to talk to my g/f while abroad without all the crap roaming charges! Help me out Crackberry! i have IM+ on my bold but chatting is kinda annoying!!

missmawarlina

This app is very useful for me to contact my family over sea. I would love to have one. Thank you.

ZeleiAdi

Nice! I love Skype, but I can't understand why can't RIM or Skype make a free one which I can use with EDGE/3G or WiFi.

MikeOWaterloo

VOIP via Skype would be great - especially for long distance, travelling etc.

callmeforge

I'll take a copy please!

RLTAN

Happy Holidays.....

Was hoping to be first but guess not a little too slow

garymait

VoIP would be a big help when roaming. Thanks for offering this.

mansonhouse

Thanks!

edward4u

My fingers are crossed....I talk to my overseas friends all the time...

doodie1231

goranzarkovic

jljljl13

i'd like to have this
!

mackguyver

Wow - would love a copy!

mr_chen

Oh great, I'll love to win one! My folks live oversea. I just love skype. Since skype does not widely support Skype for BlackBlerry, IM+ Talk is more than welcome!

MattDub22

I dont deserve this application. I have no one I call outside the country, heck even out side the state! It is a cool app and does show how far we have come with these Blackberry's. I just love to see it! Don't pick me for this one, but the first 9780 theme giveaway... HOLLA BACK AT ME!!!

Wiz-Six

Can I have one please..?it would make it cheaper to talk to my mom overseas...thx !would make it a good xmas...

sgesang

This could be one of the best gift for Christmas!

crazykaka

A lot of my family members in Malta don't have land lines. This will allow me to Skype-call them from my phone without having to be tied to my computer. Skype is my only communication method with them. Absolute Lifesaver!!

rayjr13

This will save me a million gazillion fafillion dol lars!!

This is excellent since the skype mobile app for BB doesn't use WiFi. This would be excellent to try as the new features would really push this to be a (more) premier product.

Hope I win as more important to saving money would how much Id gain being even more accessible to international friends. That's where the riches are!

CyBerts

J'aimerais beaucoup en gagner une copie pour l'utiliser avec mon compte Skype! C'est malheureusement une des seules solutions possible pour utiliser Skype lors que nous ne sommes pas avec Verizon au USA (Rogers au Canada dans mon cas!).

Joyeux Noël!

CyBerts

HazAnwar

I think I should get it because I've been waiting for ages for SHAPE to release their amazing product! I'm on the move a lot from country to country and seeing as my laptop doesn't have a webcam or mic I'm just left with my BlackBerry to get in contact with all my loved ones. I need to ring them and tell them I'm all safe so that they don't need to worry. I cannot afford the high costly overseas bills because i've been there and done that and it cost me an arm and a leg. PLEASE!

neoflasher

I could really use this being that I am a heavy skype user...

Redz20

I would love to win one, I'm always talking with my family back home using skype, and I can definitely use the mobility IM+talk grants you. *fingers crossed*..

mellos10

This would go great with my new torch I would like to win it so I can replace Bee-jive. Bee-jive may have been more affordable but i like the lite version of this app and have fewer problems using versus bee-jive please make me one of the 20 winners.

Gallia

Aww this would be so cool to stay in touch with my girlfriend, she lives in Toronto and I'm studying in Europe :( Wanted to get this, but I always found the price a bit steep... Maybe I'll get lucky!!

FuzzyPapaBear

Looking for a single all-in-one IM client and VoIP is the icing on the cake!

papped

sounds like a cool app

stephyv1

I think I would love to have this app..I have family over in italy and I think that this would help me to save a lot..and I am a fan of this app since I used the lite versions while it was still in beta..would love to win this.thanks crackberry!

jjames42

Would love to have a copy. Help me during trips overseas.

Ameri-CAIN

nik316

Wonderful news CB! I would love this app for my blackberry!

NoirCX

ncvbxfgf

Would be awesome for those long distance calls between me and me bestie!

jagnavyseals

Hi, Im entered about the IM+ Talk! 4.3 version . I will talk to my relatives in USA, cause is very expensive by phone, I could save over 50 bucks by month. I think i deserve this expectacular App, because It´s Christmas, Its a very nice present for one of your best followers.

ronpon21

would love to get this to talk to my family in trinidad and tobago

maximog

How badly I want this app? Ever since I found out that for Blackberry, I had no other available choices for me to Skype friends and family in over 5 different countries. I fully commit to submit a 500+ words essay on my personal experiences with the app if I happen to be selected for a copy. Thank you, CB staff in any case.

CrackedAngel

Who wants to use a pretend Skype? Skype is great when using a 2 way camera phone, and forget BlackBerry having that for now. (Their pipeline says tons of things are coming, but when? I want to be young enough to enjoy them.) Skype is a terrific feature, and allows you to see and hear people you talk with. It's like having them in the room. Being BlackBerry doesn't have two cameras (front and back), seeing them is out of the question. To hear them on Skype, one may just use Skype on their home computers. That way they can see and hear people.

Raistlin1

Comment
Cause I have been nice all year!!!

jfs101

Looks great, throw one of those copies my way!

ChaSiuBao

paolonoguera

Wow!!! I really need this because I use msn, gtalk and skype the whole day for fun and mostly for work. Its a must for me. :)

DjDante

I want one. But why is the blackberry version more expensive then others? A few months ago I emailed shape about this. And there reason? Well blackberry apps cost more then others. Not production cost not demand or that maybe its harder to program for the blackberry platform. But because everyone else is doing it so we can too excuse is pure bs ... Rant over. And pick me so I can give it away! Happy holidays

raspes

Sinceramente esta es una aplicacion que no debe faltar en una bb y eso que ya soporta voz sobre ip es fantastico. Ojala me pueda ganar una licencia, ya podria estar mas cerca de mi chiquitita, ya que las llamadas son algo caritas. Gracias CrackBerry!!!

javieraua

This will be great for me !
If i get this app i will use it the whole day !! Everything in one ! GREAT ! :)
THANK YOU IM+ Talk AND CRACKBERRY !!! :D

andremourinho

I'd love a copy. I tried the beta version of im+ before and worked great for me. I'd love the new version, and if I don't win the copy, I'd probably buy it. Good luck to everyone! =)

juancarlosrivas

Hermanos yo quiero probar este Multimessenger y con voz IP sería excelente para probarlo sobre redes CDMA, prometería un Review incluso. Espero participar y gracias por la oportunidad

paco87

I want IM+ Talk badly. I have been waiting for a reliable app that allows me to use Skype in my Bold from AT&T. With a lot of clients overseas and a career that requires me to be constantly on the road, I can really use the Skype and save a bundle of money in long distance fees. Please, please, please, pretty please, with cream and sugar on it !!!

dhoizner
