Closed?
That doesn't sound right. Maybe I sent it wrong. I'll go look.
It shows you have not accepted it yet.

I love my Droid. I'll post up a list of apps I'm using later when I have some downtime at work.

You should have gotten an email from Google that says something like "You've been invited to Google Voice." There's a link you have to click on and sign into Voice using your Gmail credentials. Then pick a phone number.Quote:

Check your trash online using a computer - if you delete one on the Droid that is where it stays on Google's servers.Quote:

AT&T apparently fails to understand that the appeal of Android is it's openness.
If you are on AT&T and are crushed that the carrier is trying to force the round Android peg into the iPhone square, here's the good news. The Nexus One is available and it's open. You have to buy it from Google, unlocked and without carrier support (no contract subsidy.) It'll run you $529 but it's open and the carrier can't touch it. You can also root it (quite easily) and load it up with the latest CyanogenMod goodness.
Titanium Backup Info
I switched my Google account that I'm using for my phone. If you want to know how to do that without a factory reset, follow these instructions:
Go to Settings - Applications - Manage Applications
Scroll down to "Google Apps" and open it. Clear the cache/data.
Reboot, and open the Market. It will start your sign in process again.
Anyway when I did that, and switched to my new Google account, I lost all my market data. Market didn't know what apps I had installed. That sucks considering I paid for some of them. All the apps worked on my phone but I wouldn't be able to uninstall/reinstall them.
Titanium Backup has a "Market Doctor" when you upgrade to the paid version. This thing paid for itself this morning. I ran a full backup from the app and then the Market Doctor. It scans all the apps on your phone and then restores the links to them in the Market App. I rebooted my phone and the market saw all of them there.
I haven't upgraded my rom and reinstalled from the backup but I suspect that will work well based on this experience. I'll update when I try that.

I had the truly entertaining chance to get in between a conversation at my son's cubscout pack meeting tonight.
A Dev at Microsoft over in Redmond who had the new and supersecret unreleased Windows 7 phone, and a Dev at Motorola who told me their next new phone will eat the Droid as a light snack.
The Windows phone was flashy and had a lot in common with the looks of the Droid, but was all beta. Half of the stuff worked, but it was neat to see it before the public.
We all quickly left the iPhone advocate behind.
