There is a Blackberry version of the Google Voice app, which is not as full-featured as the Android app, but that has certain important advantages for corporate phone users. You can still use Google Voice in the iPhone, sort of, via the Safari browser, as I'll explain below. The iPhone has great potential, but until Apple pulls its head out of its Apps Store, it's denied to us as a Google Voice platform. Not surprisingly, it's Google's own mobile phone platform, Android. I've tried Google Voice on four different platforms - iPhone, Blackberry, Android phone, and PC - and one clearly stands out above the rest. But the experience is not the same on all phones. That is the killer feature of this killer app. With Google Voice apps for mobile phones, I can also make calls from cellular phones that show the Google Voice number in the Caller ID displays of the people I'm calling. The features are great, but what I really like is that the number is truly portable: I just point the service at whatever phone, or phones, I want to use that day and my calls arrive there. I now give out my Google Voice number ( get yours here, but be prepared to wait a bit before it arrives) more than my mobile phone or my desk phone, and even have it on my business cards now. I've been a fan of Google Voice since I started using it in earnest back in March. Check out the action at the end of the post. In addition to providing a more comprehensive sign-on system and real-time updating, Echo also collates comments on this story from other Web sources, such as Twitter. Dear readers: We are testing a new commenting system, JS-Kit's Echo, in this post.
