I tried this first on my old Tilt, which was hopeless, then on a Touch Pro which was troublesome but baseline functional. The TP2 is the first phone I've had that seems to handle it reasonably well (and yes, I know the hardware on the TP1 and TP2 is nearly the same, I have no answer as to why the TP2 does a better job).

Haven't tried Google voice, so I have no idea how that would work.
