A couple of weeks ago I decided to research phone solutions as nothing so far is very useful for my situation (I live in a very iffy cell phone region, my power goes off at times and sometimes the landline goes out with it). I hate like hell having to have a landline + a cheezy cell. I would love to be able to play around with Android, plus I need a better camera.

And I was right.* There is something. I'm signed up for their beta and eagerly await my wave assignment in http://www.republicwireless.com/  I'll let you know how it goes when it happens, but theoretically it should be perfect for me. It uses wifi when wifi is available (99% of the time for me), and switches to a cell network if it isn't. It's ~20 a month.

Hurry up!

*When it first began it had a non-interesting phone but has just switched to a quite reasonable one with a 5 mp cam.
