Don't you need a carrier who does WIFI calling too?
It's also ridiculous to pay these high phone bills to use your wireless to make calls..
Hence the looking at an alternative carrier. I know a dozen people on Republic with Moto X and X2s. They have really good luck where ever they are, it roams to Verizon if needed, and when they are on wifi the quality is comparable.

What phones are available on T-mobile and Cricket are one of the leading factors that kept me away from them.. but as I said.. if I can buy an unlocked phone today and move my SIM card into it.. that might be the way to go.
You don't even need an unlocked phone for Striaghtalk or Cricket. With Circket the SIM cards are AT&T compatible. with ST you just have to make sure you order the AT&T sim. So you can use any unlocked phone (that supports the GSM bands for AT&T) or you can used a locked AT&T phone, which are cheap to come buy on ebay and such.
T-Mobile would be harder as they use odd GSM bands that many unlocked phones don't have unless you buy the pentaband. And well there coverage sucks most everywhere I've been.

TMobile for the win again!
So get a carrier that has no coverage in many areas to get Wifi Calling?
A Micro/Femto Cell will let you use your phone of your network connection if you need to.

In my testing it's the best combination. It's coverage has gotten really good and in lots of areas is the best. Getting a Femto cell is only useful for a huge investment in your home or stationary location. But wifi works pretty much everywhere. So the advantages to having Tmobile + partner coverage for cell and wifi anywhere is pretty awesome.

That's every carrier. TMobile lacks a lot of rural coverage. Verizon has the best overall coverage but since it lacks some major metros like Dallas and lacks wifi in my testing its usable coverage is a fraction of TMobile's.

So do you just hop on any o' free wifi to make calls?

Why not? It might be encrpyted but even if not POTS is not either and it's easy to listen in on calls.

It's not easy! You have to go to the person's home you want to listen in on.. or know where the lines are running through and get into that box.. etc!
It's much easier to listen to VOIP calls by planting a bug/virus in a computer on the network where the VOIP system is.

Verizon does have Wifi calling now, only had it for a year I think. For where I am Tmobile is just beginning to have coverage and it's still spotty at best.

I call splicing into two wires much eaiser than getting a way into a network..
Also Cellular signals are even easier to snoop on.
