Ok, have used GV a bit and I've found some things incredibly helpful. 1.) Call screening: I never realized how great this was, with an unknown number I let it go to voicemail and can listen in on the message and answer at anytime 2.) Using GV to manage my cell phone voicemail: Very nice having all calls on one voicemail, and I hate listening to calls, so that'll bring me to... 3.) Voicemail transcription: pretty nifty, it's not perfect but it's getting pretty close most of the time My main issue... When forwarding my voicemail from cell phone it was ringing my home phone... I THINK I fixed this by going into settings and selection on forward go directly to voicemail... but we'll see. So far so good, if you have an invite I'd definitely recommend checking it out.
