Truphone 3.0 is seeing its release on the second supported Apple handheld, the iPod touch. The company developing the software noted that the immense success garnered by the iPhone version of Truphone 3.0 made them “keen to follow-up as quickly as possible for all [...] iPod touch customers.”

The Truphone user experience is now slicker and more intuitive than ever before, thanks to enhancements included with the 3.0 release, says the app's maker. Truphone, a free Voice-over-IP (VoIP) app for iPhone and iPod touch, also uses an account management tool, which, according to the developers, outpaces anything else currently available on the market. The app itself is, overall, faster and now works natively on both the iPhone, and the iPod touch. Lastly the application is touted by its makers as the best app of its kind on the market thanks to the improved call quality available with Truphone 3.0.

The instant-messaging (IM) tool allows users to manage all their IM communication from a single page within the application, eliminating the need to launch different applications, and switch through various accounts. Truphone supports IM services including Skype, MSN Messenger, AIM, Yahoo! Messenger and Google Talk.

“Following the successful launch of Truphone 3.0 for the iPhone we were keen to follow-up as quickly as possible for all our iPod touch customers. That’s what we’ve done to ensure that they can take advantage of all our new improvements: improved UI, account management and call quality. We believe Truphone 3.0 sets a new benchmark in terms of quality and performance,” said Geraldine Wilson, CEO Truphone.

“With these improvements, we believe Truphone 3.0 is the best application to turn your iPod touch into a Wi-Fi phone and staying in touch with all of your IM communities.”
