You must have read the recent news about mobile operators disabling VOIP (SIP) features on Nokia N95. Perhaps most of you are already puzzled on whether to buy a mobile with disabled VOIP features. Here is the great news for all of you. Fring, a leading mobile VOIP company has an answer to "Manipulative" Mobile operators. Fring enables N95 with all Mobile VOIP functionality even on a disabled N95 phone. That sounds great. Jon at Fring has sent me a descriptive email explaining how they manage to break through the disabled N95 phones. fring can mVoIP on any N95 handset because fring manages the VoIP configuration independent of the operator or VoIP settings. What these operators did was simply disable or hide the Internet settings from the specific handsets they distribute. This means that on these specific models from those operators, unless you install a client like fring, you can’t configure VoIP telephony services. Because fring works independent of the operator or VoIP settings, fring isn’t affected by these limitations.
Fring has also posted some nice video tutorial explaining how to use Mobile VOIP with Fring. Check out their mobile VOIP Videos

Not much of a techy so can you tell me , What VOIP mean? Am I right in thinking that its
1) Free calls to mobiles in india,dubai etc from N95 mobile?
2) what restrictions are there if any?
Any danger of mobile companies refusing this.
T-mobile are stopping calls to 07744 numbers.

Narinder, VOIP means Voice over internet protocol and Mobile VOIP means Voice over Internet using Mobile. hope that clears your doubt.
In case of Fring, the first restriction isn't there unless they block or dont allow calls to specific countries for regulatory reasons etc. I will confirm with Fring on this.
Fring doesn't use your mobile network to make calls. You just need to use a GPRS or Wi-fi internet. The call will be sent via internet without using your mobile network. So Mobile networks don't have any control over it unless they block access to fring etc. I don't know if you can bypass such things.
There is a possibility that mobile companies will be against this coz they will loose money, but lets hope they wont.
