Just got signed up to the Google Voice Beta.

Can't wait to fool around with it when the bar is over next week! I am going to dig:

(1) the voicemail-to-text transcription (even though it's not totally accurate just yet);
(2) different voicemails for different persons;
(3) a new phone number (a virtual work cell phone number, without the cost!);
(4) free U.S. VoIP (I think. . .).

I almost went with a Cambridge, MA number because of nostalgia, but my sense got the better of me.
