However, I have not been able to log into GV at all yet. I have the service still and the number works fine, I just can't adjust any settings or anything. I tried to get to the site and see what is up but the GC site tells me that I have upgraded and that I access by logging into google voice. I try that and I can't get logged in with any email that I try and no place for help that I found.

But Google voice is really usable without compromising your communications. It is interesting because now you will be calling a person rather than a place (home etc.). So, for example, husbands and wives will have separate numbers. Cell phones initiated this change but Google Voice is completing it. <BR/><BR/>http://geekideas.blogspot.comMarchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11163542669720620341noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-26079413075444657202009-03-13T17:05:00.000-07:002009-03-13T17:05:00.000-07:00Regarding shekala's described issue: Does this me...Regarding shekala's described issue: Does this mean when I travel internationally, I'm not going to be able to access my voicemail by computer?
