VoIP Calls via 888 short code
by Odhiambo Washington 06 Apr '09

06 Apr '09

Hello skunks, One can make VoIP calls via Safaricom and Orange/TLK but dialing 888-CC-AC-NUMBER. I have tested this with Orange/TKL and the quality is really good (or was I lucky?). I am wondering how they implement this service. Who is their upstream provider, if any? -- Best regards, Odhiambo WASHINGTON, Nairobi,KE +254733744121/+254722743223 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ "Clothes make the man.

All. Its funny how we all went complaining of how much noise is on skunkworks, then it goes under for a week, we go all sulky and mood less, once its back, its flaming time....:) I would recommend a really good book titled "Nudge"...kinda explains it all. BTW there is a forum still on test runs where you have a chance to say anything in specific categories. Kindly check it out if you are interested. http://my.co.ke/phpbb/index.php -tyrus _IEEE Member -- Want to help people?
