Invites

Hey Guys,
Do you have any Google Voice invites?
I really want to try the service and I'm just waiting for the site to invite me now...
Thanks a million!


Edit - I went to Ebay and bought an invite for $2. Worth it!

All,

I was going through to try to figure out who asked for an invited but had not received one, but it's a bit difficult to tell who did and did not get one. So, I'm throwing this out there -- I have 4 invites available, first come, first served. Email voyager dot 106 at gmail dot com if interested. Just ask that you pay it forward

Trust me, GV is definitely worth it!

One should be on your way. Email voyager dot 106 at gmail dot com if you don't receive it shortly.

That leaves me with one left.

For those saying they don't see the benefit.. or that it's just a transcribed voicemail service or something, here are reasons why I think it blows traditional phone service out of the water:

• One number: a single phone number that rings all your phones, up to SIX different phone. Your cell, your landline, your work number, your girlfriend's/parents/kids house, your hotel room, your Skype/Gizmo5 number.

• Custom call filters by time. Set it up so from 7am to 8am on the way to work your number rings your cell, 8 to 5 calls your office line, 5 to 6 calls your cell on the way back home, 6 to 7 goes straight to voicemail for a quiet interrupted dinner, 7 to 11 goes to your landline, and 11 to 6 am goes to voicemail for an uninterrupted sleep. All with ONE number to call, and nobody calling you has any idea anything is different.

• Free Google visual voicemail: Voicemail comes directly to my Droid, already transcribed, and I just hit the play button to listen.

• Complete integration into Android 2.0 on the Droid, intercepts all incoming and outgoing calls if you tell it to, and puts new voicemail, and SMS notifications right in the notification bar so it acts exactly as you are used to.

• Voicemail transcription: read what your voicemail says and sticks it right on your Droid: Not always perfect, but more than good enough to get the drift of the message and getting better everyday.

• Custom greetings: vary voicemail greetings by caller. I can leave a custom, personal voicemail for EVERY single caller in my phone book if I want.

• International calling: low cost calls to the world. Like 2 cents a minute low cost

• Notifications: read voicemail messages via email or SMS

• Share voicemails: forward, embed, or download voicemails

• Free SMS: send, receive & store text messages online. Once again FREE text messaging using the Google Voice app on your Droid. No 10-15 a month texting plan anymore from Verizon.It uses your 3g connection instead. (note this is for texts and voicemail ONLY, not calling.. you use your normal minutes for that)

• Block calls: send unwanted callers straight to voicemail, or make them hear a "The number you have dialed is no longer in service" message, and never hear from them again. Telemarketers, old girlfriends, Bill collectors. All gone instantly. Using your number on the web for sites like craigslist and shady store accounts has never been easier, you can block them if they get out of hand.

• Record calls: record phone calls and store them online - Free

• Conference calls: join several people into a single call - Free

• Screen callers: hear who is calling before you pick up. Literally, your own personal secretary answering the phone and asking all, or just unknown or restricted callers to announce their name before they are connected to you. When you pick up, you hear their name, and have the option to answer, send them to voicemail, or send them to voicemail and listen in on that voicemail live.

• UNLIMITED free calling if you have a qualifying verizon friends and family plan, when you set your incoming Google Voice calls to display YOUR GV number, and then add that number into your fav five or whatever.. all calls become free. (Not sure how long verizon will let this go though)

• Super cheap or free VOIP calls when forwarding your number to a Gizmo5 account.. Now that Google has purchased them, this will eventually be integrated into Google Voice itself, but be aware right now your calls are NOT voip, they use your cell minutes if you use your cell)

That's all I can think of right now, and at least half of those features require you use a new google voice number and not just your own number with the service (which is more more limited) Also, listing the bad with the good as well, if you don't use the friends and family plan option, your google voice calls are NOT in network (free) but this is not a deal breaker for a guy like me who doesn't use huge voice minutes anyways.

So for those of you who say "I just didn't see anything that made it worthwhile" maybe none of those features above look worthwhile to you, but I think they are INCREDIBLY worthwhile.

Oh and P.S. - it's all free... all of it minus international calling (which is super cheap). .. Wow
