Agree with you on the Google not caring about the product at all. I am so dependent on Google Voice right now to the extent that I don't even know my real number. But Google's approach to Voice is scaring me more with every passing month and year. I even switched to Sprint because they have carrier integration with Voice but even that is a half-hearted integration:
- Text messages arrive after random delays.
- My outgoing number switches to the Sprint number if I am on call roaming.
- When I am logged in to gmail on my computer, it is always unpredictable where it is going to route my incoming call - to my phone or to gmail.
- Some services don't consider the Google Voice number to be a valid number (for e.g. I had problems recently trying to get FiOS to recognize my Google Voice number)
