GV missed calls - when answered by home machine?

Then I think it's your cordless phone that's putting up the missed call message on its handset.  That's what my Vtech does when its answering machine takes a call.

Thanks for the info.

Just noticed something weird, if I try to call an 800 number with the Obi110/GV it just rings and rings.
Am I supposed to key in something special for an 800/888/866 etc number?

RonR:
Toll-free numbers (800/888/877/866) should work through Google Voice like any other number (they do here).

I have my default area code in the  Obi so I don't have to dial it for local calls, will that cause a problem when dialing 800 numbers or any other call where I need another area code other than the one I live in?

If the DigitMap is constructed properly, that shouldn't be a problem.  I assume you're simply adding 1aaa to 7-digit numbers.

Look in the OBi Call History and see what was actually sent to Google Voice when you dialed the 800 number that rings endlessly.  If it appears to be correct, log into your Google Voice account and call the number from the web page.  If the same thing happens there, the problem is with Google Voice and not the OBi.
