Callback Module Works (finally!) in Freepbx

[Stu]

Acrobits new version of Groundwire has support for callback modules using http and SOAP. On an iPhone (and soon Droid), you'll have a virtual dialpad that you just dial on your PDA and have your local SIM ring. Right now, I'm using Voxalot with a virtual extension off my Asterisks to do the dialing. I also have done callback VOIP, but I've always been concerned that this is the easiest to block. Additionally, if you are doing it only with a roaming SIM, it is a royal pain in the arse.

Sounds nice but wouldn't you be charged high dataroaming charges when doing this outside your home country ?

I do carry 2 phones 1 to trigger the callback and 1 to have roaming free receiption of the call.
