google voice (with Sprint intergration) question

[4wheelfurry]

OK someone please explain how or what I'm supposted to see with Google voice and the intergration with Sprint??

I activated my G-voice and it does email me a transcribed message however I still have to dial my google number to check it (not my sprint number). Also my phone (TP2) sees no vmail count in the regestry now, I assume that notification is gone??

I want to make my Gvoice # and my Sprint # one in the same but it says I need to port it over, what does that mean??? Do I leave Sprint? Does my number leave Sprint?

How is it that I intergrated them but still have two seperate numbers?? It seems as though Gvoice behaves exactly as it did before this "Sprint intergration" stuff..

when you go to your google.com/voice account, click on settings

from there to to Spring's Integration.

Click option two, dail *38 when it tells you. Done.

Well the problem was my work discount. After Sprint got that sorted out I was able to activate my google voice using my sprint number no probs.

I have a related question: What's the point?
I am not sure I understand the big deal. Sprint changed things so that you could use Google Voice as your primary voicemail service a year ago.
Does this change simply allow you to place calls directly through Google Voice without having to dial into Google Voice now--or use a Google Voice Dialer on your phone?

If the last is true, what happens to your actual Sprint number? Do you loose it forever?

Good to know about Google Voice. Is it about mobile.
