    Default 2 numbers, 1 phone

    I hope that title made people think of a certain internet meme. LOL!

    Anyway...back when I was on a Failberry, I had inquired as to whether there was a way to use my ONE phone to handle 2 lines or 2 numbers.

    Reason being, I conduct a lot of business online (Craigslist, eBay, etc) and I don't like to use my personal phone number when placing those ads...but I also don't want to have to carry around 2 cell phones everywhere I go.

    Technology has changed a bit, so I thought I'd re-ask the same question - is there a way to use my one phone, but have it handle 2 numbers/lines/SIMs simultaneously?

    I had seem Dual-SIM cards on eBay and Amazon but I'm not sure if there are software-based solutions now or not. I also have no idea how I would go about programming a Dual-SIM card.

    Ideally, I'd like to keep my current regular number and then add a second line (or even a pre-paid SIM) to use on my same phone.

    Is this possible? Seems far simpler a task than half the things our phones can do these days, but for some reason I don't hear anyone asking about it. Any advice appreciated. Thanks!

    Google Voice would probably do you just fine.
    Check it out.

    3rd that Google Voice. That's what I do. I use that GV number for my DJing and the main number for everything else.

    Google Voice with Acrobits SIP set up works great, narrows down to GV again, lol. Good luck.
