| Vonage IPhone app?
Just got me one of them there iPhones - pretty slick device 
Seriously though.
Does anyone know if Vonage plans a softphone app for the iPhone?
There are a couple Apps out there for checking VM and managing the account - both of which can be done via the Safari browser on the iPhone (for free). |

Why do you say that - Google just announced a GVoice app for Android and plans to have one for the iPhone in a couple weeks. Google Voice works fine on the IPhone as well - just cant use the phone features (yet).
All Apps dont need to ome thru the IStore either - there are many third party apps out there |

1 edit | All iPhone apps must go through the app store unless you jailbreak your phone. Fine one that doesn't require a jailbroken phone.
Also any VOIP app out there now for the iPhone only works on WIFI and won't work on 3G or EDGE because Apple/ATT won't allow it. (Unless you HACK/'jailbreak" your phone to bypass it)

(Unless you HACK/'jailbreak" your phone to bypass it) Send me your number - I will call you on Google Voice from my NON-Hijacked Iphone from a 3g connection.
When I call you I can give you some of the MANY sites that have apps for NON-Hijacked Iphones......
Now - PLEASE return the OP to the origional question |

| When I said "app" I meant an APP (.ips file), a free standing program that downloads on your phone. On that point I stand corrected (or misunderstood). Back on topic ... you will never see a Vonage app because Vonage is a closed system unless someone hacks a softphone nor will you see any PROGRAM APPLICATION which download directly to your iPhone other then through the app store or a jailbroken phone.. Web "apps" excluded which will work on just about any phone.
Google Voice is not "really" a VOIP phone service. When I call a number from my Google voice account thru their WEB APP on my iPhone I have to be at my HOME PHONE to complete the call. The only "sorta" VOIP service on the iPhone is SKYPE but Apple crippled it.
