Whats the point?

I dont really see the point here. As I understand it, they used to offer a Nokia VoIP client. Now, they bought a company that sells pre-paid SIM cards. Hmmmm, so now the point is you can use a SIM card or a wifi hotspot and have the same number?? Its not like the wifi calls are free (they are the same cost as a SIM call), so why not just use a SIM card to begin with? In all honesty I cant remember the last time (or if it ever happened at all!) that I was in an area with no GSM service, yet somehow had wifi service. I suppose one could theoretically encounter this situation is a sub basement, but in that case just wait to use the phone until you get outside! Overall I think the global market for something like this is extremely small and limited.
