iPhones in the EU get ability to set more default apps, delete more built-in ones (m.gsmarena.com)

I don't expect most iPhone users to ever change their default settings, but it's nice that it will be possible in a year.

Who knows, maybe one day you can run actual Firefox on them too? :p

Google Voice, with built-in dialer, voicemail, etc., was useful once upon a time, from when they acquired GrandCentral (original company) up through a few years ago.

Not so much anymore, just recently ported out the last couple of numbers I was using them for. I don't see much use case for replacing the dialer, except insofar as the ability to do so has value in terms of freedom and open markets.
