The new service reportedly has a very Google Voice-like interface that uses similar icons for placed calls, missed calls and voicemail messages. But it's unclear whether the unnamed feature would be integrated with your Google Voice account, because you will not need a Google Voice phone number to use the new service. But just like Google Voice the new service will let you place free phone calls to the U.S. and Canada, according to a report from CNET.
It's unclear when any new Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) service would launch, but Fortune's Seth Weintraub expects Google's press briefing today to unveil the service then.
