Truphone Anywhere, an app that enables the user to make low-cost international calls and send IMs on a variety of platforms, is now available in the Android Market for Android phones, including the T-Mobile G1. According to the press release from Comunicano, Inc., Truphone Anywhere is now available for customers in the U.S. and U.K. markets and should be available in March in the Germany and Austria Android Market. According to the press release:

As well as being able to make low-cost international voice calls, Truphone customers can also easily instant-message their friends across a variety of networks including MSN, Yahoo!, Google Talk™ and Twitter from within one Android application. Customers can also call friends anywhere in the world on Google Talk for the price of a local call, and similarly will soon will be able to instant-message and call their friends on Skype.

It's exciting as developers make more apps available for the Android platform that increase the usefulness of our 'droid phones. Truphone is already running on iPhone, iPod Touch, BlackBerry, and Nokia, so it's nice that Android can now join the club. Give it a try and let us know what you think!
