Apple be darned – Google has come up with a way to make their app store rejected service available for all iphone users. To read more about the service visit http://www.google.com/mobile/voice – the new product also works on other devices including the Blackberry and Droid phones. This is a big blow to the anti-competitive nature of Apple and AT&T who have been ferociously denying the use of apps that utilize VoIP technologies to circumvent their calling and use the data plans rather than calling minutes for users.
At this point the only thing AT&T can try to do is block access to the websites using their data network. If they try to do that look for some major lawsuits and possible anti-trust / anti-competitive interference with the federal government and FCC.
In the mean time, happy unlimited free texting and super cheap phone calls for all!
