Google Voice - calls from overseas to U.S.
gobigred:
Thanks for the info guys! I haven't learned any of the expert mode programming. Not sure if/when I'll get into that but my brother-in-law might be interested in playing around with it if GV ends up charging per minute for calls to/from the U.S. Cheers!

The configuration I pointed you to is extremely easy to accomplish. It's simply a couple of copy/paste operations plus entering a couple of OBiTALK numbers. Don't let it intimidate you.

I've read that Google Voice charges 1 cent/minute for calls overseas to/from the U.S. even if the user has a U.S. GV number. Is this true? Seems the only way they would know where calls are originated or terminated is by IP address. If it is true, is there a way that a friend overseas with an OBi 100 can call my OBi 100 in the U.S. via an OBi to OBi call, get my auto attendant and then call out to the U.S. via my OBi and thus avoid the 1 cent/minute charge? If so, whose number would show up on the caller ID of the person receiving the call? ???
Your friend wouldn't need to even have their own OBi100, they could just use OBiAPP and a softphone on their PC or OBiON on their smart phone to access your OBi for dialing out. But having another OBi100 would definitely work too.
These little OBi's are very useful. :)
