Last year at the Internet Telephony Expo, one of the absolutely hottest things I saw was the TalkPlus demo that Jeff Black did. I was itching to play with it then, and that itch is finally getting scratched today. The TalkPlus Blogger Relations Program just kicked off to introduce their newest, cutting edge telephony efforts that will soon be available for a wider range of mobile phones.

The expanded TalkPlus Blogger Relations Program offers the latest information on TalkPlus and the opportunity to experience their most integrated solution on the newest, most compatible mobile phones. First up: TalkPlus for Symbian Series 60 devices, such as the Nokia N and Eseries phones. And since I'm using an N95 right now, that's where I installed it. Got all set up with a new TalkPlus virtual number and I'm ready to roll.

I'll be setting up a briefing with TalkPlus' Founder and Chief Strategy Officer, Jeff Black, who is also the company's Chairman.  Jeff is an insightful expert in the mobile industry and his credentials for creating a successful Voice 2.0 business are impeccable.  For almost 30 years, he has been developing and marketing emerging technologies in the wireless, Internet search, and Internet appliances markets. I've shared dinner with jeff a time or two, done a podcast with him and spoken on many occasions. I'm really looking forward to hearing where TalkPlus is heading next. I've heard some of the hints, but tonights the first time I've gotten to see firsthand on my own phone.

Stand by as I know there'll be more to come on the TalkPlus front.
