Grand Central and Gizmo In Sync

Matt Miller, Paul Kapustka, Alec Saunders, Garrett Smith and Ken Camp are all providing incredible analysis on the interoperability between GrandCentral and GizmoProject.

Last night Craig Walker, CEO of GrandCentral was my first call to try it out. A few minutes earlier, Dameon (PhoneBoy) and I had just completed a Gizmo to Gizmo call on my Nokia N800 Internet Tablet.

This combination is killer for those of us who travel and have wired broadband in the hotel. Bring along a WiFi travel router, plug that into the hotel's broadband network ad use a N80-Internet Edition dual mode phone from Nokia and the calls are free as you'll avoid cellular carrier airtime. Or if you have one, try Gizmo on a Nokia Internet Tablet 770 or Nseries 800. Then again, you can always use Gizmo and GrandCentral on your Mac or PC too.

With eTel coming up next week, it's nice to see the mashups already becoming a reality, and in this case, one that really works well.

Congrats to all involved in making vision become reality.
