The Openmoko Vo-IP network

2007-07-13 Thread George Abraham

Now that we have a great phone to use, we could use a great channel
for communication. The vision is to communicate using the most open
channel of communication ( the Internet) using VoIP technology for
routing all mobile phone calls. Openmoko application framework can be
used to create a skype-like client running on openmoko. A wireless
router (openmoko) can provide the mobility, which are connected to
each other using the Internet. The hotspot can be serviced by WiMAX or
WiFi technology. The router will talk to other openmoko routers,
routing the call to users on openmoko network. Files and video can be
transfered/ streamed to each other through openmoko. This would be a
great to go along with Openmoko, not only providing a free phone,
but also a free network as well.

There is already a technology for this - SIP - and open VOIP PABXes
(Asterisk). We just need a client for OpenMoko. No sense reinventing
the wheel. :)

I think on this way there could be somethnig more powerful for the OpenMoko:
some sort of ad-hoc network between openmokos. hm.. let's see if I can
describe what i mean: Some sort of Adressed Walkie-Talkie with openmoko as
clients AND as repeaters. It should be possible, and useful for example in
companies where the OpenMoko is adopted as officaial phone, or for Trekking
groups, et cetera...

SIP will work client to client. If you get ad-hoc or mesh networking over WiFi 
and share your sip identity it should just work. Putting a nice, usable 
interface on it and making it secure will be more of a challenge.

In a company I would not use that solution as it's a management nightmare. A 
SIP client connecting over WiFi to an asterisk server makes much more sense.
