Don’t have a phone that support SIP? Too bad, but there is hope!
The freely downloadable Fring application supports SIP and has a wide install base for many different phones! Just setup the VoipBuster SIP profile in Fring and you too can make those cheap calls!

    …and not just fring.

    The same SIP settings also work in Nimbuzz and Talkonaut.

    from http://symbianism.blogspot.com/2009/06/nimbuzz-and-fring-updates-behind-scenes.html :

    “Nimbuzz has a somewhat better user interface than fring, and the sound quality is better too. But fring has more features and it is sometimes able to connect through firewalls that Nimbuzz cannot pass. If you can’t choose, just keep both programs on your phone.”

    Talkonaut looks ugly, but unlike fring and Nimbuzz, Talkonaut can store multiple SIP settings.
