No SMS? That's a deal breaker for me. Having the ability to send SMS from my computer was a big part of Google Voice. People could text me or call me using it, reaching either my cell phone or my Obihai.
If you look at their feedback forum it shows that it is planned.

After a 30-day {60-min} trial, we decided to use obivoice for our VoIP Home phone service configured on a OBi202 device. We are happy with the service, also the audio quality of the service is very good. The support at obivoice is great and they continue to add features and improvements suggested by their customers.
We forward our Google Voice Home phone number to the obivoice DID phone number in order to take advantage of the great 'Call Screening' and 'Voice Mail' service on Google Voice. Outgoing calls from our obivoice service are configured to send our Google Voice Home phone number for Caller ID.

Just signed up the trial account a few days back to try out Vestalink. The on-line chat is very responsive and almost no wait time if I have any questions need help. The sign up process using their tool was easy enough. But once it's done, my SP2 no longer worked and I had to manually enter all info back to restore the SP2 service.
I tried both Vestalink (SP1) and Callcentric (SP2) on the obi100 device.
I think there is a very small delay for Vestalink but not for Callcentric. The way I tested this was I called the phone numbers given by Vestalink and Callcentric directly without going through any other forwarding methods like GV, and then let my own answer machine (sits next to me so I can hear it) to pick up the calls. I can hear the delay when I leave my messages. It is only minor delay. Otherwise, call quality from both are almost the same.
Anyone has the same experience?
DrewMan:
I do notice a delay from when you finish dialing until the phone actually rings. It is only about 3 secs, so acceptable. Call quality seems very good. I did have some problems with callers reporting an echo. This was when I was forwarded inbound calls from GV. Since I have ported to Vestalink, no issues.
I had some issues with calls not being completed (error 40x). Once I changed the inbound and outbound proxy ports per Vestalink's support site suggestion, the problem has not occurred.
So very happy thus far.
