Google Voice

[legalskier]

Have any of you tried it? Interesting features, like having one main number that rings on all your phones (home, cell, office), real time voice-mail screening, number blocking, and voice-mail with written transcripts.

I use it to handle all of my voice mail via my Droid. I like almost all of the features. The transcripts haven't proven to be very helpful as they are rarely accurate. I like it a lot better than the VZ Visual Voicemail I had.

I use it so I can get an email notification of a new voicemail message, and listen to it online, since I rarely carry my phone with me. The transcripts are terrible and are largely useless.

The transcripts are frequently hilarious.

I've got an account, but haven't used it yet. It seems like a really cool thing though.
