I can't wait for a Google Phone

Am I the only one who hates phone calls? AT&T’s call quality is terrible – I can’t remember the last time I understood everything someone said. And there’s no way to look it up later like I can with email. For important conversations (like talks with clients), I don’t trust phones at all; it needs to be in person or by email.

With talk of a Google phone and Google bidding on the 700mhz spectrum, I’m hoping my next phone will be one where every call I get shows up in Gmail under “Talks” (just like my google talk chats) with a text transcript, or I just won’t answer the phone and I’ll get my voicemails in Gmail.

Can’t wait.
