Google Voice mobile app for Blackberry and Android has been announced by Google leading to huge downloads by Blackberry and Android users ,
Previously, to place a call using Google Voice, you had to dial your own Google Voice number from your cell phone or use the Quick Call button online.

With this new mobile app, you can make calls and send SMS messages with your Google Voice number directly from your mobile phone. The app is fully integrated with each phone’s contacts, so you can call via Google Voice straight from your address book.

From the mobile app, you can:

1. Access your voicemail: read message transcripts, follow along with "karaoke-style" playback of messages, read SMS messages sent to your Google Voice number (even if your phone doesn't receive SMS messages) and access your call history
2. Place calls that display your Google Voice number from your address book, the app dialer (Blackberry) or the native dialer (Android)
3. Send SMS messages that display your Google Voice number
4. Place international calls at low rates

What is Kubuntu?

Kubuntu is a free, user-friendly operating system based on the K Desktop Environment and on the award winning Ubuntu operating system.

Similarly to ubuntu , is kubuntu <9.04> with a little bit of difference in operations
You can get ubuntu easily
Earlier all versions of linux were shipped freely all over globe but due to huge orders they had stopped shipping free ,all except Ubuntu , but now again they have started free distribution of CD'z for Kubuntu
Follow these steps :
Go to http://www.kubuntu.org/getkubuntu
There you will see two options :

1. Buy on CD or DVD - Buy a CD or DVD with Ubuntu, Edubuntu or Kubuntu, or a large number of CDs from a distributor near you. If you are in North America you can get Ubuntu and Kubuntu on DVD from Amazon.com.
2. Request a free CD- Request a free Ubuntu, Edubuntu or Kubuntu CD from Canonical Delivery typically takes 6-10 weeks.Use each CD as many times as you like - you are free to use it on as many computers as you wish and to pass on to others

Choose any option , i preferred 2nd one ,and follow instruction of getting KUBUNTU , same as that of getting UBUNTU , see this link http://qwertyweb.blogspot.com/2009/07/order-free-cd-of-ubuntu-904-no-shipping.html

Here's a chance you may never want to miss out !

You can order free CD'z on ubuntu (Jaunty Jackalope) 9.04 , an open source Operating system , software linked with LINUX

• Just go to http://www.ubuntu.com/
• You will see on left side of webpage a link on Get Ubuntu
• There you will see 3 options

1. Download now - Download the Ubuntu, Edubuntu or Kubuntu CD installer to your computer now. Please note: the CD Installer is nearly 700M. If you don't have a fast internet connection you may want to consider requesting a CD.
2. Buy on CD or DVD - Buy a CD or DVD with Ubuntu or Kubuntu CD, or a large number of CDs from a distributor near you. If you are in North America you can get Ubuntu and Kubuntu on DVD from Amazon.com.
3. Request a free CD - Request a free Ubuntu, Edubuntu or Kubuntu CD from Canonical. Delivery typically takes 6-10 weeks

Now you are free to go through any option , Best would be to Request , there you will again have two choices of Requestiong ,coz there are two types of softwares

1. Ubuntu Desktop edition
2. Ubuntu Server edition

For that you need to register at www.launchpad.net
and log in to get the CD

I had ordered both of them ,and got it within 3 weeks of free delivery along with 4 stickers of Ubuntu , you can see in the pic
And yes ,there is no catch in these , as Ubuntu runs through donation and there are loads of features which even Windows and Apple still do not have , the main feature is that there is not a single virus invented on ubuntu ,and you wont have to worry about installing any anti-virus or any such security stuff for which you will need to pay bucks .
Dont worry ,you will not require to pay any shipping charges or any TAX ,you will get Courier without fail ,if you apply for request to any one of the CD ,but if you apply for 2 ,then cant say ,because my friend was not approved for request coz he requested 2 ,but i was ! i think better if you order just one ,the Desktop one ! Any one can order this CD ,in any country just you need to give your address , thats all ,you dont even need to give your phone nos ! So order it NOW !

UPDATE :  Now ubuntu latest version l0.04 is too available ,  order this free cd from here
