Nokia's latest floatation device for fixed and mobile operators that might be finding it hard to "swim in VoIP waters" is the Nokia Communication Suite, announced at Nokia World in Amsterdam. It provides consumers and business users with software that turns their PCs into softphones for accessing a wide range of 'rich call' services over broadband connections - but with the added simplicity of using only one online identity and one billing account, hopefully provided by the VoIP-threatened fixed or mobile incumbent operator. According to Nokia, "The solution allows operators to offer seamless services across their fixed broadband and 3G mobile broadband networks, bridging these two domains...Users can make and receive VoIP calls and other rich calls from their PCs using their existing mobile number. Calls to their mobile number can be answered with either their mobile or PC softphone." These 'rich calls' can include VoIP calls, video sharing, video calls, instant messaging, presence, file sharing, and other multimedia services. |
