yup, I'm already doing exactly that. I use my iPod Touch (4th gen) as a phone with a voip app and a voip subscription.

I'm always near wifi except when I'm in my car, and I have a pay-as-you-go cell for those times.

If you're in your car (which implies you're driving, since it's YOUR car), you shouldn't be using a phone.

not sure about the rules where you or pagekalisedown are, but in Western Australia (rules vary state by state) it's legal to phone whilst driving provided you're using a hands free kit

I wasn't going for the legality of the issue, I was going for it's overall more dangerous to drive while using the phone.
