T-Mobile Demands Sipgate Remove iPhone App

T-Mobile Germany has asked sipgate to cease and desist offering their iPhone VoIP software.

T-Mobile claims that sipgate is making the jailbreak process appear more attractive which causes customers to breach their contract. Their contracts disallows jailbreaking, running VoIP, instant messaging, and VPN applications.

Thilo Salmon, CEO of sipgate, Inc., says "for the time being our users are safe" since sipgate only runs on WiFi. He doubts the legal validity of the argument but said "we may need to fight this all the way through the courts."
