All,
First off, let me say I am *loving* this phone! It's infinitely better than what I hoped for and have had to recharge the battery on it a couple of times now because I can't put it down. Hope everyone else is enjoying theirs!
One of the things I enjoy about it is the ability to use Google Voice in order to get free SMS and not have to use the 500 min I put on the account for phones/services outside Verizon. It was set up so that everytime I went to contacts and chose to send a message, it would give me the option of using GV or not. Well, last night as I was sending a tweet through ping.fm, I noticed it asked if I wanted to use it as the default. Not reading or comprehending it, I thought it was something I could set on a contact by contact basis, and so I chose yes. And, confident in my choice, I didn't bother reading how to unset the default that it told me after I set it.
Now I've come to find out that all of my messaging is going through GV, which isn't a horrible thing, but I hadn't planned on giving my GV number out to the folks I know have VZW, so they might be confused. Can someone tell me where I need to go in order to turn off the default so that it goes back to asking me which I want to use when I send a txt? Thanks.
