Simultaneous calls coming in?
 
I have Google Voice forwarded to Gizmo5, Skype, and T-Mobile. When someone calls my Google number, all 3 calls come in almost simultaneously. Is there a way to choose which service to answer?

Remove forwarding to two of them? :)

I also find this annoying with having SIP and Skype configured.

I can't believe Nokia did not think of this possibility. Surely its a no brainer that some time you might get a call from multiple services at the same and that one might be your private line and the other your business, so you would need to choose which you answer.

Just for reference, you could describe how your current phone(s) handle situations like these?

j2001m is right. My Windows Mobile phone had a Skype client but I rarely used it because it played out of the rear speaker so there was no privacy. I will post this in brainstorm tonight. The only UI design I can think of is have multiple green answer buttons under the picture. One labeled "SIP", the other labeled "CELL", and so on. If you have any thoughts or ideas, please post.

Ah yes but which answers when you press answer? Surely one of them does, although how it decides which is anyones guess.

I can't think of a better solution either.

There should be some sort of prioritization and default setting. I don't like having to choose SIP for every call, either, but can't find a default calling setting.

Does the incoming call show multiple calls coming in?
