International calls making a dent in your pocketbook? MobileTalk from Packet8 will get you cheaper rates without all the dressed up frills. The app works by looping your calls through VoIP, thereby cutting costs by 90%. It’s really too easy to use. Set up takes a few minutes, but from there, every thing else is a breeze. You download the app to your phone, and then proceed with your calls as you normally would. When you make an international call MobileTalk will immediately route the call through their network, getting you a local number, and making your calls really cheap. You’re billed via credit card for your minutes. Calls to the UK run about 2 cents a minute, with Germany, Mexico, China and Australia close behind at 3 cents per minute—about the same rates you’d get with calling cards. You can track your calls online. The app is available for over 450 phone models including Blackeberry, Treo, Nokia, and Samsung.

| Why it might be a killer | |||
|
|
|
MobileTalk is refreshingly easy. Unlike other services, MobileTalk takes seconds to initiate a call. There are no dial backs or IM networks, or anything of the sort. You’re not granted cheap calls to only a limited number of friends. Setup is super simple and it’s much easier and efficient than having another number or buying cards.

| Some questions | |||
|
|
|
How clear are the calls? Do they have numbers for most countries around the world? Does it work if you’re calling from a country other than the States?
