Re: [Femtocell] The Beginning of the End of Residential VOIP said by Maxo:I have thought this for a long time. Have the phone simply connect to a wireless network, it automatically makes a SIP connection to the provider (AT&T, Verizon, Sprint, whomever) and viola, cell service anywhere you have access to a wireless connection. that would not work in a moving car, or when walking through the shopping mall. |

I was meaning that wireless was an alternate way to make a voice call, not superseding regular cell towers. |

That's funny, it works fine on my T-Mobile Blackberry Curve. When it loses wifi signal, it simply switches back to GSM. And although on the early T-mobile UMA phones battery drain was horrible, the battery on my Curve lasts me 3 days with light use or 1 day with heavy voice use. |
