Thanks! thought I'd post the important section.

Application Development Addresses Voice Services and Data
Voice services continue to play a central role in mobile communications, even as data grows. Application developers have created a number of voicemail and messaging services that take advantage of call forwarding capabilities. Sprint announced today that it will not charge customers for certain types of call forwarding. Conditional call forwarding for busy calls or calls not answered using the customer’s wireless phone will be free, beginning mid-November. (Standard charges will continue to apply for immediate call forwarding.)3 This change will give Sprint customers the opportunity to access third-party voice services, including the new voicemail feature in Google VoiceTM.

well, a guy named david was helpfull in setting this up for me, but now that I pasted that quote, I realized it said mid-Nov. so I'm not sure what he did, or if i'll be charged.
i'll report back after some testing.

yea, I was told what I wanted to hear so he could get me off the phone.. nothing changed (that I can tell)
oh, well, guess we gotta wait to see what they have up their sleve come turkey time.
