Anyone here using new version of fring (for Windowa Mobile)?
 

Available for about a week, there is now a Windows Mobile version of fring.

has anyone used it yet?

I have played with it and will hopefully post more detailed comment later

Fring only supports WM5 and WM6, and not support WM2003 or WM2003 second.

Many of us can not install it.

I have already done a forum search on "fring" which brings up very little information.

Any fring ( of whatever flavour ) users out there?

Fring Nokia e65
 

I used Fring (v3.02) on an Nokia e65 when I was traveling in France, Italy and Latvia (not Latveria) from Australia.

Most hotels that I stayed at had Wi-Fi in some form and Fring would connect without any hassles - I had configured Skype as well as a Voxalot SIP account in Fring.

I used the Nokia e65-> Wi-Fi -> Fring -> Voxalot -> Engin -> PSTN to Australia a number of times. The voice quality was less that a 'standard' SIP call, but it was certainly usable. People could hear me, I could hear them - that is all that I needed. I found that I had to turn up the volume on every call.

I had to configure in 2 places (I think) to get Fring/e65 to promt me which connection to use ever time and not to automatically connect to GPRS/3G data connection. Overseas this costs a heap.

Fring would connect and be usable at Wi-Fi points where the in-built SIP device in the Nokia would not. I could only register the inbiult Nokia SIP connection once. Even then, it dropped out after 10 mins. The inbuilt SIP in the Nokia should be considered beta - its just too unreliable.

Oh just another point for would-be travelers OS - I found that I could not use Fring in McDonalds Wi-FI (Wi-Fries) in France - although I did not really have time to test this in full.

you're right, tested it too on mc donalds but no connection possible...

I have not used Fring, but have read in detail about it as I am also looking for a suitable softphone for a WM device.
You need to give them your phone number which essentially becomes your userID into the Fring system. (ie this implies to me that all calls are routed through the Fring network). A lot of people do not like to give their mobile phone number as they are worried about call back charges (advertising etc).
The other disadvantage of this is that if you use multiple sims (ie for different countries) then your Fring will not work with those other sims as your account is linked to the phone number you registered with.

I am looking at the WM version of Express Talk and intend to use this when I get around to buying a dopod d810.
