It works really well. Their website is slow. Its a race-to-zero though. And "new lower international rates" their perennial tagline. Dont want to be in their business but happy to use their service.

The good news for consumers is that the metered usage model is going away, and transport is become so cheap that new rev models are possible. ie, advertising. It's easy to poo-poo advertising, but there's not a single person on this site that wouldn't opt-in for an intelligent advertising experience if it would make their phone bill go away. The operative word is "intelligent." Folks, it's coming; be excited. Your phone bill is going away. the early solutions will be off the mark as usual, but longer term the right balance will be struck.

Seems like a punishment rather than a service. They need a smart free thinker in the company who has depth in the technology and at the same time understand the market needs. I would have never released a product like this in my life and there are many other ways of generating revenues with the 10 M users that they talk about.

AND, if your friends are also jajah users it's free. So, like any other service, you're gong to pay something for voip... at least with Jajah, I can make the call without hassle to any device that can accept a call (no software needed), etc. and make it to friends on it also, (no "hoops"). unless I really have to use something like skype or gizmo, I just stick to jajah for making calls. :) that’s nice and all, but http://jajah.com will do all that for the basic services of any voip users with less hassle.
