Vonage Mobile for BlackBerry Now Available Posted in News & Rumors on 05 Oct 2009 10:34 by Adam Zeis |

CrackBerry member jeginger127 let us know that Vonage Mobile for BlackBerry is now available. The app allows you to easily make low-cost international calls using the Vonage service. You simply install the application, and any time you dial a long-distance number from your device, it will automatically run it through the Vonage service. It works on a pay as you go plan, so you just set up your refill amount and your account will automatically replenish when it runs low. The international rates vary, but seem to be fairly priced in comparison with other services.Check out more at vonagemobile.com. Bookmark/Search this post with:

I was pretty excited when I read this news, but I am running .230 and getting error "Sorry, you must have version 4.2.1 firmware..." Does any one know a way around this?
Until I realised it wouldn't use my existing service with Vonage. I am afraid its more expensive than Google Voice for cell to cell in the UK I use Vonage at home becasue I have the unlimited free calls to landlines and Google to cells as they are cheaper. Fix it up Vonage let me use my service I pay for from my cell and then maybe I would use it for the cell calls but now its pointless cos google got you beat
... I second that!
Seems to not allow registration from non-US numbers. How annoying!
Vonage appears to have joined the ranks of those companies that offer to send you a SMS if you give them your number...and then never do.
I have entered my cell number a dozen times. No response
too bad only works in the USofA.
Do Americans know there is a whole world out there!!!
Answer: "no"
While this seems to be easier to use, Talki still gives me a cheaper rate to call my girlfriend in Israel. Of course, that goes through a (718) number, which means it eats into my minutes as well. I wonder whether Vonage similarly eats into voice minutes or if works solely through data. And if it works through data, is my 8330 Curve (Rev. 0) capable of that, or only the Storm or Tour will work?
i think it also uses voice minutes and isn't a "true" VoIP app
I speak with family in Europe and Africa EVERY DAY, and was hoping to save some cash by using Vonage Mobile.
However, trying to set it up seemed overly complicated, and it doesn't appear like I would be saving anything compared to what I use now.
I think I'll stick with Voxofon.
Yup - it uses your local cell minutes and then their international rates as well. I too was initially excited by this till I realized it was over and above my existing Vonage service! No dice Vonage!
The news looks great untill you find out that it's NOT A VoIP solution but another Cellular line user. Why no VoIP for blackberry - I can't get it.
even for iphone they have a true VoIP solution but not for best mobile devices (it's about BB, not Nokia :) )
It looks like Google Voice has lower rates. Check them out before you choose one!
