If they opened this to other providers it would be a game changer, just using 
them for VoIP paging speakers would be pretty cool!

Hi,

Calling from Google smart devices has been in the US for a while (Google is a 
carrier there, so it was easy for them to setup), but in Australia it hasn't 
been available, until now. It's a pity that they've just gone with Telstra.

I don't agree with CRN's take that it will just be a fad, as is a great 
opportunity for families that need to support older people who may not be as 
mobile or don't know how to use a mobile phone. Cheap Google Home Mini's make a 
perfect speakerphone.

I wonder if they'll open this up to other providers, or will enable users to 
configure their own VoIP settings?
