It was difficult to come up with thread title.
Basically, can I use an android "phone" type device, sans carrier. In other words, that's the way many of us have been operating already: I have my nice little Nokia phone, and I have my Ipod Touch for webwork, music, contacts, mail, life. I will not get to one device with current technology so I'm wondering - what is the short-path to an Android "ipod Touch"?
- can my Optimus T be somehow customized to do exactly that kind of function, without paying a carrier for things I'm already paying for, like WIFI access?
- can some other 'phone' do the job well, or is it not possible?
- if not, then I guess I'm describing a mini-tablet??
I have decent tech skills so not afraid to root something and hack it to my liking with help from forums like this one
