Hi, for the moment I took one of their free DID numbers from the New York area. This means I can only receive calls, but it will be enough to test the service reliability. I think there's a plan for $6, which isn't bad, but if Obihai comes through with the $40/annual plan, that will be less expensive and give you both land line and cellular functionality. The only other VoIP service I have used is PhonePower, and while the service was great, it's not the most cost efficient at just over $20 a month. But, it worked very well with Groundwire, and I would recommend it if you need a solid service and excellent tech support. So far with Callcentric though, things are looking good.

I'm in the process of looking for a number to use so when the current Google Voice changes over after may 15 this year I'll still have an option since it's my primary number at the moment. -- Raul A.
