In anticipation of my HTC Incredible (shipping next week), I had a friend of mine invite me to Google Voice. I had heard you could do free SMS messaging over the service, but I had no idea how truly powerful it actually is. I will be switching my phone number to take full advantage of the features, but it's well worth it. The best part? Most of the services are available through ANY phone I add to the account! Verizon, AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile take note. This is what mobile phones SHOULD be capable of with nothing more than a phone connection.
- transcribed voicemail as e-mail and/or text message to multiple locations
- block individual numbers
- free text messaging (if you have a smartphone, you can cancel anything you currently use, this is much better)
- cheap international calling
- custom voicemail greetings based on GMail/GVoice contact lists
- conference calling
- recording calls
- receive calls on multiple phones from one number
Here's a full list of features for the service and for the phone app.
