No. The voice quality on my service is just fine, when I’m not receiving a call via gVoice.
Well that’s weird. Sorry about that.
Google Voice sounds kinda useless…
Google Voice only available in US right now.. Zzzz
Google Voice has absolutely implemented Gizmo, several months ago in fact. When you add a new number, “Gizmo” is one of the options in the pull down menu. You can then place a call with Google Voice and it’ll ring your Gizmo number.
That is not implementation. When you use Gvoice, Google calls your phone, then calls then other person’s and then connects you. It does it through a voice network.
But Google bought Gizmo5 a while back and people are expecting that Google will implement the Gizmo5 features into Gvoice (so that you can actually call from your GV number).
If that is to happen, you will no longer need a voice plan or a txt plan, just a data plan.
What part of my post confused you? You place the call with Google Voice, it dials your Gizmo number. No voice plan required, the entire call is placed over the internet. You can absolutely use Google Voice with only a data plan right now.
You CAN use your Gizmo5 number with GV, but that’s just because Gizmo gives you a number. I don’t have a Gizmo number, and I cannot get one because Google bought Gizmo5 (and they are not allowing new accounts for now).
Google will “merge” GV and Gizmo5 so the only thing that you need is GV to make calls with you GV number ONLY.
I know you can use it, but that is not implementation. That’s just a work-around.
So again, I can’t wait for Google to implement Gizmo into GV.
Why does Google go so hard?
Netflix sucks…
How long does it take for google to respond?
