I have installed Viber on my iPhone, after reading about it on another board.
http://www.viber.com/Does anyone else use it?
I am trying to see if there is any catch to it, but it seems to be legit. It is like Skype, without the need to set up a new account as you use your current phone number.
Am I missing something?

Hi Nick,
I've been using it for a few months, it was useful to contact friends with whilst in USA.
I like the fact that you can view your contacts in the same format as you can on iphone anyway and the layout is very similar.
Plus text messaging - an added bonus!
How DO they make money?! LOL

I have to admit, Luke - I had exactly the same thought.
I suppose that is why I am looking for the catch.

So far so good, I've not had any annoying advertisements and used it without issue last month. I suppose it depends how many people in your contacts have viber.

Looks interesting, so either 3G or wifi?

We have it on all of our family's iPhones and it works really well.
We use it a lot to speak to our daughter in the US and the call quality is excellent, much better than Skype.
I also use it all the time to call work colleagues and its so simple to use - and free !!
