What did you write

Your articles need help. Your writing doesn't get to the issue and seems obscure. What is the product? What will it do for me. Think of me as a novice... simplicity. What is the mobivox. Keep it simple stupid KISS, works. Try it.

no reason to

It is plenty easy to understand what the product does. Perhaps you should follow one of these old bits of wisdom:
"don't ask stupid questions"
or
"don't be a d**k for no apparent reason".

The article is easy to understand, maybe you're just a little slow...
MOBIVOX DOES FREE SKYPE CALLS ON YOUR CELL PHONE

Everything you need is in the title. ADD strikes again, apparently...
Thanks for reading

Thanks reading and registering with TalkBack to leave your feedback. I see it's your first post.

For future reference, if you find things vague or hard to understand, I usually include enough links for you to delve in a little deeper if need be. While we do cater to novice readers, services like Skype are pretty mainstream these days.
What's really best

I have checked out a myriad of VOIP mobile SPs recently and finally found one that really knows what the users want.

For example, one doesn't want to open another account and purchase credits to use a facilitator for your existing Skype account and contacts.

You don't want to go through another operator no matter how intelligent it may be, you just want to go to your mobile and call your Skype contacts as you would a normal contact in your phone book and if you are Wifi connected, great, because that's the way we want to go and stop being exploited by high mobile cost carriers.

Only one company i am aware of does this and that is www.fring.com, i have been a user for a couple of months now and their product is great and it works and addresses the issues i mentioned above. You should have a look at it because i would say that their's is really a Webware product that is designed for end users and not just another VOIP service provider charging you on top of an already existent service you have in place.

it's not just for skype

while certainly nice if you are a skype afficionado and want to make skype calls from your mobile, Mobivox also is useful for regular calls.

I've been using Mobivox for about a month for long-distance calls. I don't use Skype but I've entered a few contacts on my profile. I call the local number from my cell and say things like "Anne Marie cell" and it connects me to Anne Marie's mobile for about 2c/minute (or free now that Anne Marie is a Mobivox user)
