Google Chat check box does not appear
ATW136:
I previously set up two Google Voice accounts and they work with one Obi.
Today, I set up another two Google Voice accounts but neither one displays the Google Chat check box so that I can forward to two Obi's.
I made outgoing phone calls from both of the new accounts.
Any ideas?

Did you make those outgoing calls from the associated Gmail account web page?
ATW136:
Yes.

I decided to ask my question here because of the intense interest in Google Voice for the Obis.
I found the following on the Google Voice forum that addressed my problem:
1. Make at least one call from the "call phone" feature in Gmail/Chat.
2. In GV website | Settings (under the gear icon) | Phones, add Chat as a forwarding phone
3. With Gmail open in another browser window and Chat logged into, initiate a call from Google Voice.
I had already done 1.
I logged into gmail, then went to gv and discovered that the Chat check box had appeared. I don't know if logging into gmail, revealed the Chat check box or something else did...

Google Talk does not appear as a forwarding phone until you place that first call from within gmail.
