do you really have to give everybody ur new gv number to really be able to use it or does all calls registered under that number gets pushed to google voice?

EDIT: Reread your post. I just use the Voicemail part and don't give out my GV number.

Yes, I do this.
Google Voice Blog: Google Voice with your existing number

It only works for Mobile phones. I used it on my work cell. I hated calling *86 and going through the prompts. Now, I get an email with the actual message and a SMS with the message translated. I don't think the translation is very good, but you can get the gist of the VM.

I wish it worked on all phones, I would love to get rid of my work landline VM.
