An application for the iPod Touch can transform the music

player into a mobile phone. The freeware app called Truphone uses wi-fi technology in an iPod Touch to enable users

to make calls to other iPod Touch owners. With plans released by the developers showing the possibility of landline

calls being added to the service, it could prove to be a very powerful tool for any iPod Touch

user.

The application will work very much like one

of the most popular VoIP (voice over internet protocol) pieces of software, Skype.
