1. How's the setup process?
- As far as linking your google account into sprint as well as options to disable/terminate GV service.
The setup is really easy and quick. I already had Google Voice and my mobile, Sprint, number set up. To integrate them I just clicked on the link that showed up next to my mobile phone and tell it which option I wanted (to use my Sprint number as my Google Voice number, or to integrate my existing Google Voice number). I chose the latter option and it started working right away.

To get rid of it, or undo the integration, I just clicked the new link that was next to my mobile phone in Google Voice that said "disable integration" or some variation of that. The changes were tested a few minutes later and the two were separate again.

Reintegrating was just as easy as click the link to integrate again, of course.

2. Does GV use Sprint minutes? Or does it make calls through the data service?
For example, could you make a phone call thru GV on, let's say, a tablet?
And do the minutes get recorded by Sprint? strictly on google? or both?

Thanks!
It looks like calls made via Google Voice directly don't use my Sprint minutes. Though I've only had a few cases to look at myself.
