The touchmods crew has released a beta version of the software, describing it as "the world's first free SIP-VoIP application for the iPod touch". A video showing the software in action has been posted on YouTube. There's a hardware barrier, as the iPod touch lacks a microphone. Along with the software, touchmods has released instructions for building a microphone that attaches to the dock connector, and for modifying a commercially available iPod mic. The team also plans to sell suitable microphones for €29.90. The touchmods software is said to be compatible with various VoIP providers including Freecall, SIPphone, VoipBuster and VoipCheap, and with the popular Asterisk open-source IP PABX. The iPod touch must be subjected to the 'jailbreak' process before the touchmods software can be installed.
