PALO ALTO, CA - Tuesday, June 29th, 2010
Ooma, Inc. today announced the availability of the Ooma Mobile Application (app) for the iPhone, iPod touch and iPad.

In addition, Ooma’s PureVoice Technology uses advanced voice compression to reduce bandwidth usage by 60% minimizing data usage allowing for longer calling times over 3G.
