Non-Skype VOIP client that works on Universal

Hi, I'm looking for a VOIP client that can run on the Universal, that isn't Skype. It needs to be a standard SIP client. There's loads of these of earlier versions but none mention WM5 compatibility. Has anyone tried anything like the PPC xten client on a Universal?
(In answer to 'why not skype', I work for an ISP that provides a VOIP service over the SIP standard. I get a bunch of free PSTN breakout call minutes. Since I'm in wifi range for 95% of my day, I want to use voip over wifi on a Universal for most of my voice comms)
TIA

have you tried http://www.sjlabs.com/sjp.html
recently updated for 2003 and 2003se but may work for wm5.

No, I don't have a Universal yet, and I don't know anyone with one, or any other WM5 device, unfortunately.
If there's no Universal-compatible SIP softphone, I might not get a Universal at all. But the techno-lust is growing stronger every day, so I'll probably just use skype until Xten or someone else makes their client work on WM5.
For that matter, I might even write one myself - not that I know much about PPC development!... (quick google later)... just discovered that the state of Python for PPC is pretty abysmal. I guess .NET is the way to go. Oh joy.

i am using X-Pro Softphone for Pocket PC on my mda pro (t-mobile universal version), it works perfectly with my german voip-account. you can use four different voip-accounts in this tool! currently i am using the version 3 pro. the only mismatch you will have (as with skype too): it only uses the external speaker instead of the phone speaker. but if you use your headset (you should anyway because of the weight of the universal;-)) it works the way it should!
details are here: http://www.xten.com
any questions left? feel free to ask!
cheers, lutz

Thanks for the info - xten will be perfect!
cheers

i am using the xten, it is good.

Vindigo and WM5

Hi everyone,
I used the VINDIGO application but now I find that it does not work on my Jamin. I heard it works for some people. Is there a way to make it work on WM5?
Thanks for your feedback.

MS Reader Activation Problems NEED HELP PLEASE.

Hi all. I've recently downloaded and installed both the Notebook and PocketPC version of MS Reader, I signed in with my Passport activated the Notebook version but when I tried to activate my Pocket PC I got this error message [connected to the notebook via USB and synced with AS4.1 as a partner]:
You have an older version of Pocket PC which does not support Activation. Activation requires Pocket PC 2002 or later.

I have a dopod 838 AKU2.0 which is a WM5 device so this struck me as very odd. Have sent an email to MS but haven't received any help yet so I was wondering if anyone else has had this experience and if they know of a workaround. Thanks in advanced.

When I prepared my XDA mini S for vacation, I had the same problem. No activation possible.
Anyone made the same experience?

Damn...with issues like this no wonder people just download and install cracked version of MS Applications.
@bnycastro
You tried the best that you can....if I were you, just search for a [email protected] or [email protected] and run the program.
This is MS's fault, so screw them

actually ms reader is a freeware application. activation is done to ensure that the ebooks that you purchased are tied to your device [or passport account]

Get another reader
The support you get from Microsoft is worth the money you pay for MS Reader - i.e. nothing. It is shocking even for freeware. They write this stuff to tie you in to MS stuff they charge for which is OK, except for when the support is rubbish.
Get another free reader that really works - Try Mobipocket it even has an RSS feeder on the desktop.

I had the same problem. Apparently is quite common and it has to do with a certain oeminfo.xml file you should have on your \windows dir.
Check out this PocketPc Junkies forum:

Some of the participants are MS Reader developers and will help you. That's how I solved my problem.

Thanks for the tip! Have resolved the issue with the help of a MS Reader Team Member in PPCThoughts forums. I wonder why MS did not include activation built in; if most Ebook sellers require it anyway :roll: what is the extra process for?

It worked for me...

Fax Software?

Anyone have a wizard setup to send/receive faxes? On handango, I installed the trial version of KSE Truefax for Windows Mobile 2003 but could not get it to work.

unfortunatly there still is no working faxsoftware for WM5.
All the software for wm 2003 doesn't work on wm5.
