Raketu Technical Details
Raketu runs over any Internet connection from broadband to dial-up service. Anyone with Internet access can start using Raketu immediately. Raketu uses a unique peer-to-peer (p2p) technology, which allows the highest quality VoIP calling and highest call-completion in the industry. Unlike similar p2p communications providers, Raketu does not use Supernodes, so does not have the security risk and performance problems associated with other services.
The service can be accessed via Raketu’s LaunchPad downloadable desktop application currently available to Windows and Vista users, and via RakWeb, Raketu’s web-based client requiring no software downloads. Consumers who use mobile devices like the Nokia E70 that run on the Symbian operating system (OS), Mobile Windows Smartphone models 8125/8525, and Linux-based mobile devices like the Nokia 770 can also access RakWeb from their mobile handsets at Raketu.mobi .
