Here’s a video on how to setup your first VoIP provider with new AGEphone Mobile 2 from ageet Corporation.
AGEphone Mobile 2 brings VoIP functionality to your PDA or Smartphone. AGEphone’s VoIP-Engine “microSIP Stack” is extremely small and fast, and therefore capable of running fluidly on small scale devices, such as a PDA or smartphone. The software is designed to work with Windows Mobile 5.0 / Windows Mobile 6 with or without a touch screen and is optimized for multiple resolutions in portrait or landscape mode.
If you want to turn your websites and other web application into an IP telephony portal, use the microSIP Web SDK from ageet Corporation.
microSIP Web SDK is based on ActiveX-Technology which doesn’t require a central server for media transport and instead enables direct P2P connections. Bandwidth is provided by the customers ISP and not ageet’s customers.

microSIP Web SDK is easy to integrat, scalable, uses P2P-connections, and an independent platform which makes it an essential VoIP-development kits.
