Thanks for this Great Plugin, I only installed it a day ago for the reason of unlimited free texting & it seems like I havent had any problems yet (Im not really into this calling & call back thing from GV).

So I have a 2 in one question:

I have the advanced settings set to..
Contacts poll periods in hours : -1
Voicemail poll periods in minutes : -1
Texts poll period in minutes: 1
and I have unchecked the use GV contacts, and kept the ignore Dnd checked. I also have the status to available.
Also, through the google voice website itself I unchecked the forward the texts to cell phone option so I dont get a double message (Text & IM) everytime someone sends me a text.

So coming to the question itself..
I know that " -1 " for any of the poll settings kind of disables that feature, BUT,
WILL THE " 1 " MINUTE POLL PERIOD FOR TEXTS KILL MY BATTERY FASTER AND MAKE MY DEVICE RUN SLOWER BECAUSE OF ALL THE PROCESSING GOING ON IN THE BACKGROUND, & WILL THE " -1's " I HAVE FOR THE OTHER POLL SETTINGS COMPENSATE FOR THE ENERGY EXPENDITURE FOR THE " 1 " I HAVE IN TEXTS POLL...?

Thanks again
