Google is Reported to Reserve 1 Million Phone Numbers for Google Voice.

PC World said that Google is reported to have reserved 1 Million Phone Number for its Google Voice service. This is good news if it’s true, because the service has not been made available to new users even after Google rebranded GrandCentral into Google Voice back on March 11th, 2009.

Google Voice is currently available for existing GrandCentral users. It is unclear if Google Voice will be made available for users outside The United States.
