OK, so please bear with me. I do have a G2 which supports calling/SMS over WiFi. And, I have unlimited texting and minutes. So theoretically these ocme OUT of my unlimited "pool", but there's no incremental cost such as there would be with roaming?

Thanks so much for your help... indeed, a clueless rep.
