If you're a regular user of IM-based voice services from your PC, Talkster extends your access to buddy lists to your mobile phone. And if you're calling phone numbers in other countries, Talkster allows you to avoid any restrictions on international calling that your cell phone account might impose.
Talkster pushes the VoIP envelope in the direction of presence, the ability to see whether the person you want to communicate with is online, and how. Once you've set up your voice IM contacts in Talkster, you can see your buddies' presence information from your mobile phone's browser. (Talkster does this without installing any software on your phone, either.)
Talkster's rates for calls connected to the public telephone network are similar to Jajah's -- that call to France will cost you 2 cents a minute if you're connecting to a landline phone, 23 cents if it's a mobile. (The ever-popular Wallis and Futuna: 81 cents a minute.) Talkster accepts Visa, MasterCard, American Express and Discover through InternetSecure.
Talkster's technology has an immediate benefit -- it lets you pick the least expensive way to reach your contacts -- and it's got long-term potential as well, because voice communications are moving away from reliance on the 10-digit telephone number and over to Web 2.0 addressing schemes, such as IM handles that can be resolved to IP addresses. Talkster is positioning itself for the future.
