from the press release, it looks like you can call anyone on anything.

(Also, as I understand it, there's no reason it should or should not work specifically with any Nokia Internet Tablet, it just happens to be mentioned in one article.)

the calling procedure looks to be a bit of a pain, but it is free. of course, you'll still be charged for a local call, so it's useless unless you're making an international call to a friend in one of the listed countries. the list of countries it can be used in is still pretty limited. http://www.talkster.com/Countries.aspx
i can't think of any reason that talkster couldn't be used on any computer or internet tablet. from what i can tell, skype or some other voip service (or a regular phone) would need to be used to make the call after talkster sends you and your friend dedicated phone numbers. am i wrong?
