I have a brand new OBi200. I bought it in June 2017. Cost me US$47.46 plus tax.
The old OBi110 is much cheaper than before. I paid US$66 in 2012.

The Google Voice service uses XMPP to connect the OBi to the service. With that, after May 15th Obihai will no longer support the Google Voice service on its OBi devices.
So, it is time to find a alternative service provider. Maybe I will choose one from the following:
