See:

It looks like you also get E911.
NO. Callcentric sells inbound and outbound services separately. E911 is an outbound call. You either pay them $1.50 for that service a la carte, or you pay them for one of their monthly OUTbound calling plans that include E911.

Yeah, I see what you guys are saying. Still you have to know to go to legacy or use the other option.
Thanks for the screenshots.
I still think Obi should implement the service I described. Then they would have a full service imo but hey, I'm just one guy. Still, I'm certain many, many others would want that too. It's tantalizingly close to being 100% awesome.
It's good enough for me though. Thanks.

Google Voice was not designed to be a standalone SP for OBiTALK products. It was designed to enable OBi's to just one more place where you can send calls.
No, Google Voice was not designed to be anything for ObiTalk. ObiTalk is an afterthought on some backroom deal a couple of goobers had where they disabled functionality for all the people that WERE USING IT JUST FINE just so a few people could profit.
One thing is certain, they CAN make this work. They probably won't though (they certainly won't if you guys are successful in squashing all the squeaky wheels) and what likely will happen is in a year or two, Google will drop support for Obis out of the blue just like they dropped support for everybody else using XMPP at which point, I'll toss my Obi in the trash and regret telling others about it.

I sent you a PM.

IF you attempt to do that, and you are on a phone call, and another call comes in, that call will go to Google Voice's voicemail. Now, you will be worse-off, because you have VMs going to two different places.
Please explain how this works. I thought GV will ring for 25 seconds even when you're on another call and definitely when call waiting is enable. Callcentric VM should pickup before GV VM.
