It does not replace the iPhone phone application. It is just another application on the iPhone. Just like Fring, etc. on Android. Watch Line2's video on their home page and show me where they "replace" the iPhone phone application: http://www.line2.com/ > With regards to the security/permission barriers I refer to below, > please refer to any attempt to access phone application related > functions.

You don't need any of that to implement Line2, just as Line2 did not need any of that to implement their iPhone app. alexdonnini wrote: > Again, based on my limited > understanding, Line2 is not just a VOIP application. Yes, it is. In fact, they even say they are VOIP on their comparison page: http://www.line2.com/voip-cell-comparison.aspx In the video, they are very careful to distinguish between calls they handle (over 3G/WiFi) and calls the iPhone handles (cellular voice). > It actually > performs phone app functions and can let users pamek calls over the > AT&T network, but I could be wrong. As AT&T 3G data calls using VOIP, yes, it does. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://twitter.com/commonsguy Android Consulting: http://commonsware.com/consulting -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
