Google Sets the Date for the End of XMPP with Google Voice
makitso:
Initially, I set up an account with CallWithUS. It seemed like a good service and until I requested a DID. Turns out that its $4.00 US a month -- which seems high for limited use. Perhaps I should take another look at Localphone since their monthly charge for a DID is .99
gderf:
You can use different providers for outgoing and incoming calls.

OBi devices NEED to be updated once this date hits.
Had I known about this date I would've never bought my OBi device.

Their latest blog entry leaves me in little doubt that Obihai have no intention of doing anything to keep their devices working with GV, in the manner they currently do, after Google turn off XMPP support.
I hope that Obihai do make an update after 14 May which utilises any ROM space which could be freed up by removing the then redundant GV code. Things I would like to see added to my OBi110 include more SP slots and the T.38 fax codec.
SteveInWA:
While it would be nice if Obihai added more features to the 110 in place of GV, my guess is it might not have the processor power to support the ones you listed, and even if it does, they'd probably rather phase out the 110 as EOL, and sell the newer units.
What I really hope, is that they do remove the GV code ASAP after 5/15, so that we don't have a bazillion people asking "How do I get this Google Voice thing to work with my OBi?". >:(
