While others claim, Fring did it

According to the usually well-informed guys at TecCrunch, Fring is launching a native iPhone version of their popular mobile IM/VoIP application in the next 24 hours.

I love Fring and it’s definitely the move I was waiting for. It seems it will be provided through the installer application on jailbroken iPhones and will offer native VoIP capability through the Wifi connectivity (cool, but it will be also its limit, the same limit I always highlighted about the Truphone solution).

Fring is doing something that others claimed in the past. Truphone developed the first working VoIP application for iPhone, even if still a demo version, while Jajah announced they are working on it. Fring never claimed something neither showed a demo version, but it seems they are releasing it for the general public. 

I’m curious to see what the next move by the other players will be.
