Sam,
Can I ask you a couple of questions about Google Voice? Was it difficult to setup with the USB phone? Are you using Outlook integration with it? Reason I ask is someone just asked me to help him with trying to dial from Outlook 2010 using Google Voice through a USB headset. Trying to do some research on it and thought you might have some valuable insight.

Well, just got off the phone with my Sprint Rep. They want $130 for the 'Airwave'/MicroCell and $5/Month to use it, with a 24 month commitment. Update on Google Voice, I'm playing around with this more and discovered it's more powerful than I thought. I've found a way to have a USB Deskphone ring if my Cell # is dialed, and I can place calls through that phone via Google Voice (Same number as my Cell). I might play around with that more. If I can't cut it using that, I'll get the Airware, or utilize some of the VOIP offering you guys suggested. Thanks for the tips!

AT&T microcell if you have them. Otherwise why not get some sort of VoIP? I've had Broadvoice for 6 years and it's been very reliable.

You read that right. Is a microcell a possibility? That way you continue to use your phone, it just transmits data over your broadband network...

After layers of new insulation, soundproofing, and drywall, my cell phone no longer works down there! Oops :-\ Considering how much I telecommute, I need to get some sort of landline installed. VOIP/SIP/Digital through Comcast, I'm considering it all. But, I'm not too well versed on the options avail. I still support an old PBX at our office, and built a SIP fax service/server, but my telco experience is pretty limited outside of that. I'd like to avoid Comcast (Personal reasons and I often cancel it and go through our Municipal WiFi). Any suggestions you guys have off the top of your head? A good service that sticks out that you would like to plug? Something that incorporated with Google Voice would be a plus. (Not sure anything does). I do use the new Sprint/Google Voice offering, so I can mask the new number with my Sprint number, and I can easily have my Sprint number ring the new number too. Thanks.
