Google Fi
bsdaiwa:
Does anyone know of any problems using Google Fi relating to the Obi device? I am thinking of accepting my invitation to Fi but I don’t want to mess up my Obi devices that use my Google Voice account.
Thanks for any help.
SteveInWA:
Fi numbers are not compatible with OBi devices.

Is Fi a threat to Google Voice over OBi? I heard Leo Laporte talking about it and he didn't sound as if he had all the facts, but was lamenting how well GV HAD worked with the OBi and spoke of moving to Anveo.
SteveInWA:
Mr. Laporte's remarks remind me of the beloved Car Talk guys, Tom and Ray Magliozzi. One of my favorite quotes from Tom was: “Non Impediti Ratione Cogitationis—Unencumbered by the Thought Process.”
He has no idea what he's talking about. Project Fi is not replacing or displacing Google Voice. It's a technology demonstration, to encourage development of hybrid WiFi/LTE solutions.
ceg3:
Thanks much for the clarification. It seems somebody is always trying kill off GV and OBi connection. Glad to know it lives on.
