Google Voice

Google bought this thing not too long ago. It would be quite practical for me.http://www.google.com/googlevoice/about.html

Problem is it is invite only, you can ask for an invite but apparently it could take a while

Only other way to get it is if you have a military e-mail (.mil), which I don't have obviously. So would anyone be kind enough to invite me?

How many of you use this feature or Grand Central (before it was bought)? How do you like it?

Got my invite, didnt use it though.

I use Google voice, and it works pretty well. It needs some improving but it's a 2nd # incase something happens to my cell I can just forward to that number.

For the invite you just apply and they invite you. Not a person to person invite.

I know but it takes so long apparently... lately Canada has been reincluded in something so the hype went way up... I've only been waiting less than a week though

Took around a month for mine to come through. You'll just get a random email.

Well now with Google Voice I can make unlimited phone calls with my itouch as long as I have wifi

I can't receive any though

can't make it work,, but that's ok.

Well, has anyone tried this with their iphone?? free unlimited calling with gizmo and all

Thoughts about it? Noone really uses Google Voice? I encourage you to get an invite from https://services.google.com/fb/forms/googlevoiceinvite/

Also, my cousin is asking me to ask for an invite from someone if noone is using theirs...

So I am lol. He's super Jealous xD

inbound VOIP calls require port 5060 to be forwarded or running through a SIP proxy. its something of a specialty of mine, we have over 5 VOIP lines in my house

i asked for an invite, this could be fun - i have friends in the USA and canada

Good to see you got it working (figured you were set when you did not PM me), at least my invite went to good use :laugh:

Took me about 2 weeks to get my invite.
