That sounds like a good idea.

You might should have kept this quiet. I'd expect new Sprint exclusion rules before long. There are a lot of Sprint employees on this site. Just my 2 cents. lol

I don't think it really matters. When GrandCentral started, people were doing this with their incoming calls. It was posted all over the place.
With GV, you are now able to do it with outgoing also. MordyT just makes it easier
Out of millions of customers, I would say that an extremely small percentage of customers utilize GV in this way.
I gotta go, I hear a knock at the door

Sure, I finished the video last night. and had it uploading before I left. It said It may take a few hours to be approved by youtube... but here we are a day later and I don't see it on my account yet. I won't get to try and upload it again until I get back home.

I actually was giving you all the credit in the description and refereed to this thread for more details.

*edit* ok.. I'm trying to re-upload it right now... hopefully I'll have a link to post soon...

Well I hear what you're saying but... sprint only offer's "pick 3-5" to a select few as it is... they don't advertise it... and if they do for some reason change their policy then that's a reason to wave the early termination fee for anyone who want's to leave... so damned if they do, and damned if they don't i sapose...

but I doubt they would make that move unless they some how get support from other providers and they all drop that feature at once, cuz otherwise sprint's customers could go (with ETF's waived) to one of the company who does still offer that feature... which is why sprint has "pick 3" in the first place.. to keep you from going to company's like verizon to compete with their "IN" and t-mobiles "fav5's" and alltells "my circle" but on the low in-case you threaten to leave because of it. However, I don't suggest you threaten to leave... unless you're prepared to stand behind your threat because your not guaranteed a "Pick 3" offer, again they are selective about it lol.. or it just may not occur to the rep to offer it to you at that time lol still.. be prepared for the worst result.. Murphy's law...

not to mention the gov would prolly get involved, look at whats going on between the gov, at&t, google, and apple right now due to apple denying google voice in its app store.

Personally theres nothing illegal about google voice so theres no need to be hiding away in shame about it, yes you can greatly lower ur phone bill with it if paired with the right calling plan. but its not practical for the average users, maybe some day it will be... but most ppl are a lil too lazy to learn how to use it lol... that's just my opinion tho.

Cellular companies make mucho dinero $$$$$.
Just look at the Congressional Hearings about Text Messaging. How it costs a penny, etc. and cellular companies charge 20 cents. Across the board. All about a Monopoly.
You should have heard the BullShi*t coming out of the mouths of the CEO's of Verizon and Atnt defending themselves.
So you're right about the Carriers not wanting to rock the boat anymore than they have.
I think we will be safe for awhile
