When I first heard of Square, my first thought was great concept! Accepting credit card payments everywhere without requiring a merchant account, monthly fees or minimums will revolutionize credit payments for non-commercial face-to-face transactions.

T-Mobile is set to begin testing UMA calling on Android devices according to a Boy Genius post. Unlicensed Mobile Access (UMA) technology provides access to GSM and GPRS mobile services over Wi-Fi. I’ve used T-Mobiles UMA service in the past with a Blackberry device and it’s worked quite well. Despite reports from others claiming intermittent problems with T-Mobiles UMA service with routers other than T-mobiles Linksys WRT54G or the Linksys Hi-Port Router. I experienced no such problems in my daily use. UMA calling on Android would certainly be a welcome addition.
