SmartFone - Net2MAX Plans

What is SmartFone ONE?

After nearly 10 years of research & development, we're proud to introduce SmartFone, your NEW, Low Cost, Global Broadband Phone Service.

It's CHEAPER & MORE FLEXIBLE than your 'regular' phone account and provides MORE FEATURES than you ever imagined!

Built on the Internet's #1 VoIP platform, Net2MAX, SmartFone integrates the global phone systems with the Internet allowing YOU to actively control the whole communication process, not just talk passively on the phone. [Net2MAX Overview]

SmartFone combines the best of breed from many differing phone and data networks and combines them into one globally integrated service to become your Personal Communication Centre.

VoIP - The New Disruptive Technology

Basically, VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) allows you to make phone calls over the internet. If you are phoning another person using the same VoIP provider then the call will be totally free. Skype made this idea popular but Skype has many limitations.

VoIP is called a 'Disruptive Technology', because it will totally replace (disrupt) the current telephone technology... like the way typweriters gave way to PC Word Processors. Industry gurus are saying VoIP is going to totally replace the current phone system (Public Switched Telephone Network - PSTN) by 2010!

What is Broadband Phone?

Broadband phone is simply another term for making a phone call using VoIP over ANY Broadband Internet service, be it ADSL, Cable, Satellite, Wireless, etc. It often also means you do not have to turn your computer on (or have one at all) AND you can use your favourite telephone handset (using a device called an Analog Telephone Adapter).

Broadband internet is becoming all pervasive... ubiquitous. Just like physical audio CD's are giving way to electronic MP3's, compression techniques now allow us to put 10 telephone calls into the same space as ONE call a few years ago.

Industry gurus report that, over the next 10 years, 'regular' POTS phone systems will totally disappear and be replaced by Broadband Phone, using VoIP.
