Re: [Techno-Chat]: Device To Device Calling: Google Versus Amazon

2017-10-07 Thread Joshua Gregory

Not sure about the subject lines... I use the mobile version of gmail,
maybe that has something to do with it?

Payment plans, I meant for the pixel 2, google calling is free as far
as I know, sorry for the confusion.

Josh, I` wonder why your mail client is replicating the subject lines?

As I think I said in another message, the Amazon Alexa to Alexa device or Alexa 
app calling is totally free of charge. So it obviously isn’t the same as the 
Google service. That fact makes me feel a bit better because were they to do 
that over here I wouldn’t be prepared to pay for the privilege. ;-)
