CID Problem
J4545:
I have a GV number that forwards to my office landline, my cell, and an Obi100.
I also have a Callcentric "Pay-Per-Call" number on the Obi, which gives me outgoing calls for 2 cents a minute and E-911.
Finally an Android Talkatone free number that is yet another destination for GV calls.
Obi says: "...your OBi will continue working as it does today – with calls to your Google Voice number ringing the phone and use of Google’s service for connecting calls to the numbers you dial."
When XMPP goes away I was hoping I could just forward GV to the Callcentric number on the Obi.
So is there some reason I need to port my GV number?
Thank you very much for any info and suggestions.

XMPP isn't used to do this now, so the end of XMPP is irrelevant for this aspect of your service.
J4545:
My understanding is my Obi will no longer say "SP1: Google Voice™ Account" after May. I thought that was because it used XMPP to make that connection to GV.

Once XMPP is shut down, you can delete your SP1. Forwarding GV to a DID doesn't use XMPP or your SP1 that is configured for GV.
J4545:
Great, that's what I thought. So I'm still not seeing any reason to port out of GV.
From GV's point of view it is just going to keep on forwarding my number to various phone numbers. I would rather have my total system decoupled into independent components anyway.
