  • Bowie at Beeb: Best of BBC Radio 68-72

    • 10 out of 10
    • David Bowie
    • The companion CD to a BBC television concert, BBC Radio Theatre has some of the best renditions of many of Bowie's best songs throughout his career. "I'm Afraid of Americans" is substantial

  • Jagged Little Pill (Acoustic)

    • 6 out of 10
    • Alanis Morissette
    • Ten years after the original release, comes the traditional celebratory acoustic re-recording. The album has held up remarkably well. While it is not as meaningful to me as it was when I was sixteen,
  • Quadrophenia

    • 10 out of 10
    • The Who
    • Quadrophenia is everything that Tommy wanted to be, a rock opera that told a story, but one where every song could still stand alone. It was also Pete Townshend's farewell tribute to the Mod

    • Chicago
    • For those of you who don't know, Chicago didn't always suck, and everyone in the band didn't always play a keyboard. When the band started off they were pioneers of rock and jazz fusion, and guita

Jajah Customized Service Comes to iPhone [UPDATED]

Jajah, an international VOIP service, launched its custom iPhone interface for the iPhone on Thursday. Apple iPhone users can access the service via Wi-Fi or EDGE with Safari, enter an international number and pay low VOIP rates for an international call.

No contract is required, and international rates are a fraction of what is normally charged from a land line or mobile service.

The user connects to iphone.jajah.com and enters the desired international number. Then there is a call back to the iPhone over the EDGE network and the two numbers are connected via VOIP for the international connection. For example, calls to any land line from an iPhone the U.S. to Germany are 3.3 cents/min. and 20.6 cents/min to a cell phone in Germany.

Because the call is set up between two standard phones, this is not like Skype. It could be useful for business people who want a low cost, easy access mechanism for international calls from anywhere in the U.S.

Calls between Jajah members are free.


Users must sign up with an e-mail address, an iPhone phone number, and registration is free. International call charges are billed through a Jajah account and can be paid, for example, with a credit card. The duration of the local portion of the call is part of the user’s monthly minutes on the AT&T iPhone plan. There are lengthly terms of service worth reading.

The original service can be launched from any personal computer by creating an account and logging on at jajah.com. The call, however, is always between two standard phones.

A free trial for five minutes duration is available.

[UPDATE: This article was updated with additional information for clarity.]
