Mass hysteria?
naizarak:
nice to see obi got their facts completely wrong and GV wasn't actually shut down ::)
oh well i've already switched to localphone. pay $2/month to rent a number and get 800mins, which is more than enough for me. also no contract. can't complain.

Doesnt look like Google is looking to close GV down very soon. Saw this on my voice home page today.

There was never any threatened closedown of GoogleVoice. There were rumblings of XMPP being turned off on 15 May. That is one of the protocols available to interact with the GV servers. If that had happened (or if it will happen at some point) then OBi devices cease to work with GV. Unless/until Google make more dramatic changes to GV, it will still be available by other non-Obi methods.
