Obivoice (Intelafone) vs. Forthcoming Obihai Service?
giqcass:
What I like about Obivoice right now is they are watching these forums and trying to accommodate us. Unfortunately this thread is one sided since ObiHai isn't giving us anything to compare yet. Come on ObiHai give us something!

I went whole hog, signed up for the 2 year unlimited plan, and ported my number to Obivoice.
Give us an update in a month or so.

Will do! I just need to remember... ;)

Sounds like a viable option if you don't make certain international calls. Some international call prices are quite high. I'd have to keep my prepaid long distance service I used before GV.

Which ObiHai unfortunately is not doing. They need to provide a complete solution. If all you are going to do is sell an ATA, this opens the door for the other VOIP companies that provide an integrated package when you open the box that UPS delivers.

Or simply add another SIP provider for outgoing calls. Find one which has good rates to where you need to call (localphone, callwithus, etc).
Or it sounds like you could keep your GV service and use it the way Google intended it to be used. That is, either call your GV number from some existing service and press <2> to initiate the call, or use the GV website to initiate the call at which point it will call you on your desired number(s) and when you answer it will call your chosen destination.
With an OBi you have flexibility. Go with Ooma, Magic Jack, or whatever 'canned' provider and you have a very simple solution but you have no flexibility. You have to add other device. That flexibility gives you the opportunity to save money but at the cost of some complexity. Always tradeoffs...
