Righto, so somebody's doing it already on free software.

I was referring to simply that the carrier will likely charge extra for data calls (in comparison to voice calls). Though now that I check the figures, they _have_ come down at least here since last I checked. Which was a while ago. My particular provider does still seem to charge sizable extra for receiving a data call, though not for making one, leastways a 9k6 one. (Which immediately springs into mind that one needs to support nudging a phone to come online and connect with the secure VOIP service using a single-ring call from a known caller ID. This would save on data call reception charges and the particular signaling method would be free too... Didn't yet check to see if you already support something like this :) -- Mikko Rauhala - [EMAIL PROTECTED] - <URL:http://www.iki.fi/mjr/> Transhumanist - WTA member - <URL:http://www.transhumanism.org/> Singularitarian - SIAI supporter - <URL:http://www.singinst.org/> _______________________________________________ OpenMoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
