Only they can do that and even with the call over wi-fi it is not truly using traditional VoIP. @DavidB You have a point but that is not how RIM sees it. Just look at how hard they push BES even though it only makes 2% of their revenue. If it is only 2% you would think they would offer a PIM solution for consumers already but they are too afraid to cannibalize their BES offering. I just find this Agito solution funny since even RIM's solutio, MVS, that they have been touting as the greatest thing since sliced bread cannot accomplish VoIP over Wi-Fi. I doubt others could pull off what RIM does not. They would need special api access that would put Agito in direct competition with RIM's MVS. @Nikolaus

RIM revenues are only 2% from software, and just 13% from services. They clearly Have decided to focus on hardware and let smaller players fill the apps void. Simple really.
