How did you get your Google Voice number in the first place? I went to the site, and couldn't even figure that out, never mind anything else! Tina ********************************************************************** Let us love, not in word or speech, but in truth and action. -- 1 John 3:18

You will probably get other answers and so far I have read two other messages on this. It is not exactly a VoIP number, instead it is a virtual number. This means that for the most part if you have it forwarding to your cell phone number, when you make and receive calls to or from your Google voice number it will still use your cell phone minutes. You can of course use apps like talkatone to make data voice calls. One advantage of Google voice is that if you use it to text message, the messages are On the Google voice website and are virtually stored forever. Or at least as long as you want them to. In any case, a lot longer and easier to manage than the messages app on the phone. Another advantage is that if you get an incoming call through your Google voice number, you can record the phone call. This will play a message that all parties will here so they know they are being recorded. This comes in handy and of course you can later retrieve it from the Google voice website. There are many more advantages and I could go on forever and ever since I am a huge fan of Google voice. However I will mention one last advantage and say no more unless others are interested. I have an ObiTalk Phone bridge adapter. With this adapter I can make it so it uses Google voice as it's line. That means that my home phone is actually a Google voice number and I don't have to pay for home phone service. As long as I have this adapter connected to the Internet and configured, then I get free phone service.
