Fring

I’m in the camp of people that decided not to buy the iPhone and wait until they released the 3G version. Looking in from the outside at all the iPhone users though, I have to say that I’m amazed at the number of users that still love it even though it runs on a slow network and is locked into AT&T. This I think is largely attributed to hacking community that has sprung up around this one single device (in addition of course to it’s ease-of-use and aesthetics). One great example that was just released today is ‘Fring’ which is an app that allows you to chat on multiple platforms as well as make SIP calls. Of course you need to jailbreak the phone but what this apps offers will help drive the push toward helping open up the iPhone SDK hopefully.
