Its going live soon, ask around, maybe you can score and invite...

I've been using Google Voice since it was released and its predecessor Grand Central for a year now.
Google bought Grandcentral and rebranded it Google Voice.

Google Voice also has a plugin for Firefox:

simply point and click and it dials the number...

and the google Toolbar:

(instructions are halfway down the page..)

I use both as well and feel they add a lot to a very nice service.

I'm extremely pleased with it and have even directed the calls to my Magicjack number. I like the ability to record calls (though I don't think about it until AFTER someone says something important) and I really like the Voicemail transcription feature.
No more listening to voicemails to figure out whats going on.
I do have problems sometimes with call quality but think it is either cordless phone interference or magicjack. When I am on cellohone, calls are clear and easy to understand..

A week after you posted this question (June 25, 2009), Google Voice made the service available as invite only.

The request for invitation is available here
