I went ahead and got a skype number, added it to my Google Voice account along with my mobile number and made the switch to Google Voicemail. An incoming call rings my mobile and Skype numers. Check. But to answer a call, it takes clicking a few numbers with Skype, but it seems to work fine. There are a few drawbacks. One, if you answer the phone with Skype, it shows a missed call on your mobile. Two, Google Voicemail has to be downloaded to hear it on your mobile phone. With ATT, this can be a pain. The Text messages are nice, but the voice to text is pretty bad.
My second text says “Hi, Sorry, I wanna alright. So hello.” I can’t remember the actual message, but this text has “Hi” right, but that’s about it.
The next thing I need to figure out is how to keep all my contacts synced. I’ve got Google Sync doing my contacts from Google contacts to my blackberry (I love the Google Dedupe), but I need a way to sync them to Skype as well as sync them from My Google for Domains Contacts to my personal contacts.
