Google Voice Integration W/ Sprint
Many of our users already use Google Voice, especially for their voicemail features. Soon, Sprint users will get tighter integration with Google Voice, actually letting you use your Sprint number as your Google Voice number without porting it. You will also be using Google Voice's voicemail system instead of Sprint's.
It also looks as if you'll be forced into an Everything plan, which includes unlimited texting, which seems pointless since you can text with Google Voice already. Of course Google Voice doesn't support MMS yet though.
For our Sprint users out there, would this feature interest you?

I’m too excited about this one!!! Sprint has really stepped their game up as of late…
minutes and texting are already included in my plan, so i dont really need GV.. the only good thing about GV was being able to give people my number, without actually giving them My Number..
for 3rd party VoiceMail, YouMail is where its at.. Cant beat the personalized grettings for every caller..
this is because the Nexus S 4G from sprint is going to have it integrated i bet.. oh btw NEXUS S 4G by SPrint HAS been made Offical.. http://now.sprint.com/nexus/?ECID=vanity%3Anexus#/nexus_s_4g
I like it, very nice having 2 numbers & better integration is a good thing. It’d be great if I could redirect voicemails for personal & business without using YouMail.
@bored&tatted…I have had nothing but problems out of youmail. I do like the features of how it’s supposed to act. I work for Sprint and we spend a lot of time removing youmail and its problems from people’s accounts.
As soon as they support MMS, I will love it. I use Voice for my voicemail now, but i need MMS so i can get the naughty pics that my wife sends me when I am away on business
