How I Learned To Quit The iPhone & Love Google Voice
- TweedHeads 17y agoFlagged. I've had enough of cheap tabloids on HN.
- there 17y agono carrier will ever have a stranglehold on me again. except google, apparently.
- physcab 17y agoand T-Mobile?
- forgotmypasswd 17y agoIs there a way to have a wifi phone yet?
- cdibona 17y agoYou could install sip droid on an unlocked android like the adp1 (or install unknown sources on a carrier phone) or go with any number of sip clients for pdas. Then you still need to provision a line for the other end of the sip connection, but you'll have a pda that can make calls.
- blhack 17y agoYeah, go to fry's and buy one.
- joeyo 17y agoIn fairness, Android should start appearing on other carriers Any Day Now.
- thismat 17y agoSay what you will, but T-Mobile has been an outstanding company - I've used them for 5+ years and I can't tell you the discounts, offers, late fees, other misc things they've taken care of. You get a sense they really value their customers, and especially value a long patronage with them. I will be sticking with T-Mobile, as they just feel less evil than other cell phone companies. In fact, even if I really wanted an iphone, I refuse to go at&t, I pay $50 less for unlimited nationwide calling, have 3G and a G1, close enough.
- antidaily 17y agoArrington, you ignorant slut!
- jsz0 17y agoLooks like TechCrunch switched to reruns. I hope All in the Family comes on next. That Archie Bunker is so fresh.
- fname 17y agodidnt know number portability was available yet...
- po 17y agoI think porting to a number is only available to well connected web-celebrities right now. Supposedly it's coming in the fall to us plebeians.
- blhack 17y agoI got google voice about a week ago. The only feature that I cared about on the iPhone was visual voice mail. Google voice is many, many, many, many, MANY times better than visual voicemail. I will not be getting an iPhone now, thanks Google!
