Due to lack of time, I can't get much into detail, but what you want
,- is doable, I have Gvoice ringing multiple phones (what's called a
'simultaneous hunt group')  for a while now. The are a few offsets,
example : one of your cellphones is in a bad reception area, and its
VM answers, - the call will go to that VM. its a 'first-answer' gets
the call. . Same for the one phone on that list - that has the fastest
VM answer time. Google cannot control all phone providers terms etc
,so the hunt-group manner does need some user attention until it is
satisfactory.
