Google announced (http://tgcafe.it/1Ysronf) that its Project Fi cell service is now available to anyone in the U.S. without an invitation.
Quick background (thanks to VentureBeat http://tgcafe.it/1OYKavi):
Google first introduced Project Fi in April 2015. The idea was to blend the best of Wi-Fi access with wireless access from two carriers — T-Mobile and Sprint — on certain phones. The rollout effectively turned Google into a mobile virtual network operator (MVNO), not just the company behind the Android mobile operating system.
Up until now, Project Fi was available by invitation only. If you were dying to have your cell phone service backed by T-Mobile and Sprint (ahem!), you are in luck - as of now, Project Fi is available to all.
To sweeten the deal, Google is offering LG’s Nexus 5X smartphone, which supports Project Fi, for $199 — $150 off the retail price — for the next month when you buy and activate through Project Fi.
