> I'm looking forward to the day when you can buy a SIM card from a cell carrier which offers only data and text, no voice call support. Is this hyperbole? If you will suffer my pontifications for a moment, i would argue that : Voice is a poor substitute for face to face communication, as great detail in body language is lost. Further, text is a poor substitute for voice since great detail in inflection and tone is lost. While it is true that a great majority of my conversations at work are by text/email, i would maintain that my most productive/useful ones are still face-to-face. This principle applies even more strongly to conversations with my friends and family. I am quite curious as to if you would fully give up voice for remote communication?
