   Seems audio/video are both restricted to contact list by default with
google - not sure you actually do anything else :-)

   Was just curious what you felt the shortcomings are with google ..
I'm sure they'd be happy to get suggestions ... with the advent of 4G
(like LTE) voip will be kinda the default in one form or another for
cell carriers ... not sure how that interplays with standalone voip
tools .. but hopefully competition is good for everyone!
