You've probably heard of Jajah, one of about a zillion free/cheap VoIP carriers. From the start, Jajah's twist was using the Web to set up calls: customers would go to a Web site, enter their number and the destination number, both phones would ring and the Jajah would act as a bridge. Well, today, at the famed and exclusive DEMO conference, Jajah is debuting a wireless VoIP play that essentially is the same thing on your cell phone, but pretty much without the browser. Symbian phones will be able to set up Jajah calls natively; phones with Java will need a small downloaded app; those with only a browser will be able to use Jajah that way, and other phones will be able to set up calls through SMS. At the desktop, Jajah can interoperate with Outlook or the Mac Address Book and can easily set up large conference bridges. As of today, Jajah pretty much steps to the front of the pack.
