OK, stupid question. I am wanting to replace my pearl with a phone that offers WIFI capabilities. Does the actual phone use the WIFI when making calls or does it just use WIFI on the data requests? I would like to get a cell phone that will make calls on WIFI if possible. Thanks |

The phones use WiFi to make the calls if that's the way you are connected. Theoretically, you are supposed to be able to tansfer to/from WiFi to the T-Mobile network as you move about. There is a newer pearl (8120 I think) that includes WiFi. When using WiFi, your calls are billed as normal unless you add on the unlimited WiFi calling option ($10 I think).
