Google Voice invites comma where is number porting



So it's finally here. Also, I now officially know an actual, real, person-who-isn't-me who's signed up for it. Coincidence??

Now if they'd only get their asses on top of number porting.  According to this summer, Google was supposed to be figuring out how to move a person's existing number to Google Voice, so it goes through their service when someone calls your old number.  So you don't have to get people to use a new number.  It was supposed to be rolling out later this year but a recent Google search will show that official news has been lacking for quite some time.

And apparently now AT&T is startin' some shit, tryin' to sic the FCC on Google.  So I'm sure that's not gonna help things move along.
