One thing that I dislike about making International calls or sending text messages to friends abroad is the cost attached to each. While there are quite a lot of ways/services that reduce that cost, Vopium a Copenhagen based startup comes determined to reduce the weight each call/SMS adds to your budget. The VoIP startup utilizes mobile VoIP and WiFi technology to reduce costs and it you are in a WiFi hotspot, you can make absolutely free calls to others using Vopium (of course they too should be in a WiFi zone). If you aren’t sure to be using the service you can give it a try as Vopium is offering its new users 30 Free minutes of International calls and 30 Free SMS. The startup provides its services in 18 countries at present along with support for over 600 devices from those based on Java, to RIM and iPhone along with data backup facility. Meaning that if you lose your phone you can always get those contacts back.
there is a nice service (not free, but with a low cost) that you can send text messages to any landline phone with (it translates the text to a human voice) – it is already enabled by many carrier (Sprint and others) – http://tinyurl.com/otrnlo

Thanks. But if i am not wrong I mentioned in the post that Vopium was at that point offering 30 free SMS and 30 minutes of International calls only for new registrations.
