    I tried again without the space and it doesn't show up in UK store.

    Thanks

    I'm presently in Canada and was able to download the free trial. However, when I went to send a text to my daughter in Canada, it wouldn't let me. SMS is not available for Canada.

    This is the message ... Note: Toll-Free and Canadian-issued Line2 numbers cannot send SMS messages.
    Must say I'm disappointed as it sounded like a wonderful program.

    Well at least you can make phone calls using Line 2. I save $25. a month on my phone bill as I was able to omit the costly unlimited plan I had and drop to the lowest plan for iPhone. You might also check on the Toktumi website and see if they have any ideas for the texting.

    As far as the UK goes, I don't know, but you might want to go to the website for Line 2, Virtual PBX: Hosted Small Business VoIP Phone Systems | Toktumi and send them a message on when it will be available where you are.

    FaceTime for calls is the best one (only iPad 2). Have tried it from Sweden to Spain. One of my relatives has used it from Manila to Madrid and he mentioned that the communication was perfect.

    Has not always been like this with Skype for me, with PCs or my iPhone 4.
    Skype for iPad is not there yet. I don't really like Skype for iPhone on the iPad. So small!

    Question for DontUnderstandMyIpad:
    I have just installed Vtok. Doesn't look from Google. Is if safe to login with my gmail account. Who are these guys?

    Vtok is not from Google, but I don't know the developers, nor do I know any developer from the other apps I use. The developers also offer vtok for android and their facebook site looks fine. So far I have been using vtok without any problems, nor do I expect any.

    The Google Voice app probably works the best if you've set it up with your phone, so that way your contacts have your GV number.

    Line 2 texting and calls thru 3G and VoIP work great for me. I have Google voice, but don't use it. It just won't set up for me and keeps disconnecting. Never had a problem with Line 2. Had Line 2 about 7 months now. Can send pictures, etc. No problems here.

    I agree that FACE TIME works great too for those that have Macs, iPhone 4 or iPad 2.

    This is what I got from GV:

    Google Voice is not available in your country.
    Thanks for visiting Google Voice. We're not yet open for users outside the US, but are planning to expand our service to additional countries in the future.


    I couldn't find Line 2 in my country, so the same as Harters.
