Google Voice is not VoIP. It WILL use your minutes. Unless you have fav5 grandfathered in your contract or AT&T (you'll loose 3G) A-List, you are SOL.

I just moved to T-Mo on the 1st and moved in with 80/month contract free unlimited everything plan so I am ok. Before that I used HTC Magic (Rogers) with google voice and A-List on AT&T.

But to recap, you will need minutes. Google voice is more of a front number at the moment. Not a VoIP service as of right now. With purchase of Gizmo, it may turn that way later but for now, you talk, you use your minutes.

It goes through regular phone calls, so no. Unless you get the MyFaves and put the GV number on your favelist

Edit: Too slow.. d'oh
