GoogleVoice is the primary reason I'm using Android. I also found an app through Gizmodo.com called CallTrack that takes all your calls from the Android phone and puts them on one of your Google Calendars. I created one called GoogleVoice, so when use GV for work I can go back and see when and how many calls I made. CallTrack is in the Marketplace.

Also, if you are trying to get free calls through your Friends and Family or whatever, make sure you add the access number that Android uses for GoogleVoice. When I used WinMo to dial, I used the calling card method, so I just needed my own GV number in my F&F, but when you dial a number with GV from Android it will flash a number like +1-234-567-8901 . That's the number that needs to be added to your F&F since that's how Android GV dials out.

Whew, I hope that little write-up helps someone!

I install and signed in to my Google Voice account. I chose, "ask me which way to dial out" in the settings so GV will ask me each time I make a call but I'm unable to dial out using GV, at all. In Winmo, I use MagiCall which automatically dials in my GV pin and routes my calls through GV. I'm not sure what you mean by calling card method, do you mean the GV pin number needs to be added to the phone number somehow?
