    I am from Canada and I have activated my Google Voice account plus setup an American number to forward back to my 403 number.

    Just to let people know, outgoing calls made from the Google Voice App from a mobile device WILL CHARGE YOU LONG DISTANCE (if you are in Canada).

    When you place a call in the Google Voice App, it will connect you to a Google Gateway number through your mobile phone (to an American number), then connect you to your intended number. There is really no advantage on placing calls with Google Voice App since it dials out to an American long distance number first using your phone plan, not your data plan. I found out the hard way.

    The only way around this, and to get Google Voice to call you back when you place an outgoing call is to use the Google Voice website http://google.com/voice/m on your phone or through a computer.

    From there you can logon to your account, place a call in the browser, then the application will call your phone. When you pick up the call, you will hear a dial tone which will connect you to your party.
