One is people get my cell number when I call them from my cell and then call me cell instead of my Vonage line so I miss calls. The other problem is people sometimes try to text my Vonage line and it doesn't do text messages so I never get the text.

Google voice solves both these problems for me. No matter what phone I'm using I initiate the call from Google Voice so the caller always gets my Google Voice number even if I'm calling from my cell. Also Google voice does text messages so if someone sends a text to it I still get my text message.

I have Google Voice forwarding into my Vonage line and my Vonage line SimulRings into my cell phone so now callers have one number that they text to or call.

I don't see anyplace in Google Voice to send invites so I guess I can't send any yet.

You can see more information about Google Voice here.
I actually got an invite this week, but thank you *curtsies*

Now I'm just trying to get it all sorted out and set up and whatnot.
