iTalkBB as Affordable Voip Provider; not iTalk phone

Those who hear iTalkBB for the first time may confuse iTalkBB with the Apple i-series product.  As a matter of fact, there is an iTalk phone in speculation before iPhone unveiled. Below is a clip for the fabulous iTalk phone.  The iTalkBB we are talking about in this blog is one of the leading Voip providers in US and Canada, which offers low-price and feature-rich voip servic, and is especially popular in the Chinese community for reasons you will find out soon. 

iTalkBB's Global Unlimited Package costs $299 per 14-month, which includes tax and fees, and comes with great features such as Caller ID, 3-way call, Fax support, E-911, VoiceMail, Voice-Email, Free secondary phone number in China, 200 minutes phone card use per month for you cellphones, Unlimited domestic and international calls (to 20+ countries), 24/7 customer service, and free on-line VideoOnDeman (Chinese Movies and TV series) through iTalkBB partner site. Using promotion code of 953110 from this blog, one can get additional $10 savings at sign up.

Poll on iTalkBB call quality

I have used iTalkBB for half a year now and I am quite happy with its phone quality. To collect general statistics, I decide to run a poll at this blog on iTalkBB's call quality. Please share your experience of iTalkBB with others. Note that it grants one vote for each IP address. Post in comment if you have more to say...

Added GrandCentral to my iTalkBB

I just got my GrandCentral Account setup (yes, I got a referral invitation and yes, I am willing to share my invitations if you leave your email in the comment...)

Although iTalkBB already provides voice mail and voice-email (send voice mail message as email attachment) free of charge, it doesn't have the sim-ring, customized voice messages, customized ring-tone and such-like cool features that GrandCentral offers. Some users who switched from Sunrocket to iTalkBB miss very much the sim-ring feature (capability of ringing multiple phone numbers at the same time). Now through GrandCentral I have it completed and more!

To summarize, with iTalkBB + GrandCentral, I got everything I need for phone service. $21.39/month gets me all the International calls, a free second phone number in China, 3 way call, caller id, fax, etc. and 200 iTalkFreedom minutes per month from iTalkBB. That's tax and fees included, and with possibly a free second year due to a recent promotion from iTalkBB.
And from GrandCentral, I got sim ring, personalized ring-tone, personalized voicemail and all the fancy features. And best of all, as a subsidiary of Google, GrandCentral offers all these for free!

If you need a promotion code with iTalkBB, try "953110+8991095718" to get $20 off at sign up.
If you need an invitation to GrandCentral, leave a comment to the post. Best deals belong to everyone!
