Wi-Fi Uses

I apologize in advance for what I think is going to be a noob question.

I've always gotten pretty crappy service inside my office, it fades in and out and switches into and out of roaming a lot.

I was under the impression (since a co-worker did this with his T-Mobile Blackberry) that by enabling Wi-Fi I'd be able to make/receive calls/etc over that connection. Enabling Wi-Fi, I still seem to get finicky service and the phone indicators still show that I am often moving in and out of roaming.

Is this normal? What services operate over Wi-Fi?

Thanks in advance for the education.

Re: Wi-Fi Uses

Only your internet based services work over wifi, now you could try installing something like Skype to use the internet connection to make calls over Wifi.

Ohh, that's unfortunate.

Thanks, though.
