GrandCentral? - Page 2

Thanks to VladS for the invitation. Right now, my major interest in GrandCentral is as a low-cost (free) way of providing a local access to my S. Florida CelTrek number. However, I will be looking for other uses for the system, as long as it's free.

I've been playing around the the GrandCentral mobile interface (www.grandcentral.com/mobile) Two observations:
1. Add some dummy contacts in your contact list. It seems that you can edit a contact on the mobile page but not add one.
2. It looks like this may be a good way to make cheap calls when traveling. If public pay phones in airports will still ring for incoming calls, you can trigger a call between any temporary location and anyone in your contact list. So, while I have not actually tried this with a pay phone, you might be able to set a temporary call-to number, trigger a call to a contact and then unset the temporary number.

I got GrandCentral and I used it from time to time unfortunately my 7 invites disappeared and theres no invite button to be found. I read that GC doens't allow new sign ups at the moment, maybe they run out of numbers. Anyone knows as-a-matter-fact information?
