Setting up Google Voice...now what??

OK, so for some reason I had to wait overnight for my OBI202 to be able to "connect" to Google Voice.  I stepped through all the screens, and finally my dashboard shows that SP1 is connected to GV.  Great.

But, as part of the process, it never asked me to set up a Google Voice number.  So while it may be connected, I have no idea what number it's been assigned (and I was really hoping to be able to assign my own).

My goal is to assign a GV number to the phone on my desk, then add my cell to the GV accounted as a forwarded phone.  So what am I missing?

Getting a new GV number or porting an existing one is a separate step that should be done before configuring the OBi to work with GV.
