alas, now that I have integrated it with my Fi account, most of the magic
has gone away.
I am kind of wondering if we can get to a stage of complete number
virtualisation. Mainly so when I’m overseas I can more easily direct actual
inbound SMS how I see fit. Have also had the same number for almost 10
