So, I have had my eye on the tp2 for some time now and Verizon has free activation now. Will my message come through in several small chunks or in one message?

It depends.

If you're having the voicemail texted to you via SMS, there's an absolute character limit. If the transcribed VM exceeds that limit, it'll be cut into chunks. If you're having it emailed to you, I've never hit a size limit on email on my TP2 (once I set the receive limit to the entire message rather than the default of 2KB).

Does google voice have a feature to send friends invites like gmail did or do you just get the one invite for your own phone and thats it?

I am trying to get one for my mother.

Hmmm, voip via google?...so eventually if this works out you can get a crappy voice plan and a Sprint data plan and talk unlimited with unlimited text?! (google voice + ppm phone OR low cost voice line + magic jack)

hmmm, k....net neutrality war bout to kick up soon....no doubt

Actually, current Google Voice programs for WinMo use the callback method (and another one that I cant remember the name to). So you need a voice plan to access your GV number anyway. The android GV program uses wifi to make the call.

P.S. Sprint data comes with unlimited text. So GV will only be useful for minutes.

I always install:

iDialer, iDialer-config, iContact, Greenbutton, and the blue iPhone skin.

Doesn't really get any better or more convenient (post-install) than that.

Does this replace the stock dialer and TF3D contact on the Sprint TP2? or is it simply a additional dialer that I can open when I want to make a google voice call?
