    So,

    I have an A1 with Verizon... I want to hack it to make calls through the VOICE network (Not data/WIFI). I know it's possible as someone has done it here to a Samsung 10.1 tab: Hack a Galaxy Tab 10.1 to make phone calls

    I have Android 4.0.3 on my CF-A1 with Verizon.

    What do you think? Can someone do it? My tablet has a phone number tied to it... I can TXT too!!

    Thanks!

    I read something about voice over a tablet somewhere. I can't remember where? Maybe it was a laptop when you use the wwan with a sim card??
    Sorry, I doubt that I will remember any more.

    Good lord, I am just dreaming here.....

    I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to rid my 10" A1 and get the 7" B1 if I can use it as my MAIN cell phone with my MAIN number... It would be great for navigation and EVERYTHING with my Gamber & Johnson mount in my truck... 1 freakin device!!! Not 2 damn devices that do the SAME thing except the large one can't make phone calls!!! Am I crazy for wanting this!?!? COME ON!

    Like I said, I haven't held a phone up to my ear in well over 2 years... I just use my BT headset... And the B1 is just a tough cookie! IP65, 810G... GAH!!!!! Am I asking for that much!??!

    COME ON!!!!!!!!!! Lets do this!

    Thanks!
