Grandcentral phone?

[bobquasit]

Has anyone tried http://www.grandcentral.com/? I read about it in the New York Times a while ago, and it sounded awfully interesting. It gives you a new phone number in your area code, and when that number is called, it can ring any number of phones. It also gives you a ridiculous amount of cool features; it tells you who's calling so you can decide whether or not to speak to them, and it lets you listen in while they're leaving a message - if you want, you can even break in and connect while they're leaving a message, just as if you were using an answering machine to screen messages.

Anyway, I'm a little nervous about trying it, so I thought I'd ask if anyone else has given it a go.

Try out GrandCentral. There's really no commitment.
I use it to forward to my cell, office and home numbers.

In fact, I've stopped answering calls to my home number when it doesnt go through my GrandCentral number. I hate getting unsolicited, calls from callers who I don't know, calls.
