Not sure this is going to ROK the house
I've seen a couple other similar solutions pop up in the last week. Somehow, tethering a mobile phone to a laptop via Bluetooth for VoIP just seems like a market losing proposition. If there's a demand here, I can figure it out. I think it's a stab at something different, but in the ned, useless.
ROK Group launches mobile VoIP
UK-based mobile applications developer ROK Entertainment Group has launched what it claims to be the worlds first free no-contract mobile-to-mobile voice over internet protocol (VoIP) application.ROK Viper offers free software which connects compatible handsets wirelessly to broadband via Bluetooth on a user's handset and computer. It then uses the internet to carry the call rather than a mobile network.
Initially compatible with several Bluetooth-enabled Nokia handsets, ROK aim to add more than 100 mobile handsets by the end of the year. Java-powered handsets and Windows compatible devices will be included over the next 3 months.
