Carriers Verizon Sprint AT&T Virgin (full of friction according to

according to forums)

Challenges Many choices for configuring – can
overwhelm. Porting phone numbers, Many preferences, many decisions. Call forwarding is buggy on smaller
networks (Sprint smoothest) To use via mobile phone, additional
iPhone App or Droid App must be downloaded and configured.

Installing Mobile App (iPhone) (I don’t have a Droid phone.) There are a couple of different apps. Check reviews (read reviews vs. trusting star
rating: three ratings at a five and 1000 at a three and a half can be the difference between someone’s friends rating a brand new, untested app and genuine field testing )
Look for later versions, they have been tested. But don’t trust them automatically: some updates can break what didn’t need fixing!
