There's a real donnybrook going on between AT&T, the federal government and Google. Google has figured out a way to let iPhone users text and make unlimited calls with the cheapest AT&T data plan.

It's all possible with Google Voice. You can bypass AT&T's block of Google Voice and use the iPhone web browser to access this free service. Google Voice requires an invitation to join. Sign up today because there is a waiting period of 4 to 6 months to get your invitation.

This is just one of the new telecommunications changes coming in the near future. The idea of a company charging you per call is so yesterday's news -- whether the cellular providers like it or not. In short order, Clark predicts we'll be making all calls for free!

If you travel overseas, the consumer champ wants you to know about VoxOx.com, which is in beta and still having the bugs worked out.

VoxOx makes it possible to use your cell phone to call back to the United States for mere pennies a minutes -- instead of $1/minute or more. Once you signup for this free service, all you need is a local SIM chip to start saving.

One man is paying as little as 2.2 cents/minute to call from Thailand to the United States using VoxOx.

Now that's cheap!
