And yes, with Google Voice I just add that number, then use the GV app on my iPhone and I'm GOLDEN :-) Yes, I installed it before they nuked it.

Now, how about adding unlimited Text Messages to those #'s as well?]]>Sep 9th 2009 10:18AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/Sep 9th 2009 10:21AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/Sep 9th 2009 10:54AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/Sep 9th 2009 11:08AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/
I would like to donate my unused cell minute to a charity, or even to a militiary member overseas. AT&T, ARE YOU LISTENING!!!]]>Sep 9th 2009 4:45PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/
The only problem is the rollover minutes that you don't use within 12 months expire. So you can only have the minutes you've banked in the last 12 months which for most people probably isn't as much as they would need to get something of worth from a "rewards program"]]>Sep 9th 2009 7:53PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/Sep 9th 2009 10:05AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/Sep 9th 2009 10:05AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/Sep 9th 2009 10:14AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/Sep 9th 2009 10:19AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/Setup that with Google voice and I would be happy.
Right now I do ATT's pay as you go, and it cost 25 cents per minute. That is a pretty steep cost, but I only add $25 of minutes every 3 months. I have yet to find a service that is any cheaper for the extremely low amount of usage that I use.]]>Sep 9th 2009 11:00AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/Sep 9th 2009 10:06AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/Sep 9th 2009 10:06AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/Sep 9th 2009 10:17AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/Sep 9th 2009 12:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/
So this is practically worthless for many of us because AT&T aren't letting you get the A-List with their only affordable Nation plan, the $40 one.

Given how expensive $70+tax/tags/title/month is, even their base plan should qualify for A-List. >:(]]>Sep 9th 2009 10:09AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/Sep 9th 2009 10:14AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/
An excellent point - but probably the very reason they gave it a minimum. I'm on the $40 plan and would actually like to go lower though. I don't ever come close to my 450 min. Ever.]]>Sep 9th 2009 10:16AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/Sep 9th 2009 10:24AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/
Exactly.

Besides that, I find that most the 4 lines on my FamilyTalk plans are either between each other, or to the mobile phones of our friends. As such, it all gets covered by AT&T's "free mobile to mobile" feature. Noone ever calls anyone's landlines during daytime, anyway. Only mobiles. And in the evenings, it's those free NWE minutes.

I agree with other posters that this new A-List thing is a gimmick. AT&T is just dressing up in a different way those same "free" minutes you're under-using.

P.S. you know how many Rollover minutes I have? I just checked: 6,267. ]]>Sep 9th 2009 10:42AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/Sep 9th 2009 11:36AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/Sep 9th 2009 2:04PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/Sep 9th 2009 10:09AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/Sep 9th 2009 6:55PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/Sep 9th 2009 10:18AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/Sep 9th 2009 10:17AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/Sep 9th 2009 10:30AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/Sep 9th 2009 10:20AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/Sep 9th 2009 10:23AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/Sep 9th 2009 10:27AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/Sep 9th 2009 10:57AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/Sep 9th 2009 10:28AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/Sep 9th 2009 10:29AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/atandt-gets-with-the-program-offers-unlimited-calling-to-a-list/
