VoIP over HSDPA/EVDO

I'm looking for information on carriers which are trialing or already offering VoIP over cellular (HSDPA/EVDO). Is this technology good enough? how about QOS?


Thanks.

No day in which you learn something is a complete loss.

Well, I don't know about carriers but I tried out services that do VOIP on cellular like fring or Mino. Both of them offer QOS which is not perfect but they work and they are cheap or free.

Thanks. I've been using Fring (and Skype) over HSDPA with pretty good results, and there are other clients (iSkoot, etc.) for this, but I don't think this is a long-term solution for businesses as it stands now. This is why I'm wondering if there's any "official" carrier-sanctioned mobile VoIP trial/service, which is done somewhere, with actual near-landline, or at least near-cellular QOS. This would be a "pure" VoIP service offered by the carrier, not the kind we use (pay for the data and use a client like Skype).

As with all technology, it keeps advancing, and finally, a system which provides super performance which was designed for wireless mobile, not VOIP of cellular which you will soon learn is the wrong way to go.

Simply put, VOIP over mobile is using GSM data bandwidth, and if you go to the fine print of TMobile or AT&T which offer optional data plans for $40.00 on top of your plan, you will find out VOIP is not permitted on their netowrk, so beware of big charges if you use any of the deals like FDII, Zero1 or Traverus, or you will be sorry. Don't fall for the hype, check out the real deal at www.VOIP-COIP.com
