I know, I know - just what the world needs, another IM/VOIP mobile app.
Octrotalk does look fairly standard, but it does have a couple of nice featuress.
Firstly, it is compatible with Google Talk (Jabber), MSN, AIM, ICQ and Yahoo chat protocols. It is cross platform - running on Symbian 3rd Edition, Windows Mobile and WM Smartphone as well as the Desktop version of Windows.
It also has a useful file sharing side - you can use it to access shared folders on PCs running the Windows client and there is some kind of P2P file sharing built in to boot.
The downside is… well, it’s yet another IM/VOIP app. Fring is probably a better bet for most yusers, particularly if you need Skype access. Take a look, though - it’s a free download, available here.
i have been using octrotalk on my htc touch for the past 8months now……and besides the fact that it does tend to hang my phone, it runs pretty smoothly otherwise……
would be good if not too many applications are in use while using octrotalk, might help the phone to not hang.
OctroTalk verson 2.0 is a major release. It has Real Time Mobile Video Conferencing & Video Streaming.
OctroTalk is available for window mobile smartphone, pocket PC and Nokia Symbian S60 phones. Besides the features carrier - agnostic video calling, streaming and VoIP, it also has VoIP through SIP providers.
Thanks! Good app!..
