AT&T is now allowing apps like Google Voice and Skype to be able to use VOIP over 3G networks. This is a big step in freedom and it should be really interesting how the developers are going to incorporate Push into the apps.

get the wifi only lock off of them. So when ever developers release an update to their apps it will be final

I hope this will work on Australian mobile networks too!
I'm assuming this means Google Voice is in the App Store now? *Checks* Hm... I guess not yet.
Google Voice is especially handy for me because it means friends/companies in the USA can leave a voicemail/text message on a US number (that doesn't actually belong to any carrier or forward to any phone) and I can check it online.

CDMA is too old, GSM being the norm.
There's tons of other phones that do pretty much the same thing.
Skype is in the app store, as my brother has it installed. Google Voice needs to be shoved in it. Else, jailbreaking time :)
