Yeah you could make expense GSM calls instead. Naturally you're much better off using WiFi when it's freely accessible, but of course if your device is intelligent enough it will seamlessly swap between the two, using WiFi when it's available and GSM when it's not (and vice versa), just as Truphone does.
I want WiFI so that the Phone is a real part of my network, allowing Sync's & Backups, move/consultation of files over standard smb:// protocol: safe, fast, secure, you choose what to share & what not.
I think the iPhone's got it right on this one. Using WiFi for syncing when you can use a cable/dock makes more sense to me battery wise.
