EQO Communications Launches EQO Mobile, Changing Global Mobile Calling Landscape

New service saves people up to 95% on international mobile calls and provides free international mobile calls, text messages and IM chat with other online EQO users.

Vancouver, BC, Canada and London, United Kingdom, May 23, 2007 – EQO Communications, a pioneer in mobile internet phone services, today announced the launch of EQO Mobile, a groundbreaking new service that lets users make international long distance calls and exchange IM and text messages on their mobile phones at local calling and messaging rates. People using EQO save up to 95% on all international calls and enjoy free calling and “texting” with other EQO users.

EQO’s new service is remarkably simple to use, sparing people from calling cards, complicated dialing or callback scenarios. EQO Mobile is powered by a small, sophisticated software application that makes calling as easy as using as a standard phone address book. The application is free to download and installs itself automatically. EQO Mobile allows users to leverage their existing contact lists to build a network of EQO contacts and to easily invite these contacts to also use EQO.

If this works well and is easy to use then this will be a killer app. What is great about this app is that it can be used on a wide selection of phones. I will most definitely try it out.
