So finally, Google is opening up its Voice Account service, formerly known as Grand Central. The Official Google Blog announced that email invites will be sent out to those who have requested for an invitation when Google Voice was launched in March 2009. Likewise, previous Grand Central users who opted out of the service when Google acquired it in 2007 will also be receiving email invites.
Although no exact date was given, expectations are that the invitations will be sent out as early as starting today or soon.
The Google Voice invitation will contain a link to the online instructions for setting up a new Google Voice account. Google has also added a number picker that will let users search by area code and text.
If you haven’t signed up to receive the invites, you can still register by visiting this link.

I signed up for the invite long ago but have not received anything from regarding Google Voice.
I asked my Google team if they could send an invite my way. They couldn’t.
I just received an invite and am loving the service, yet I can’t seem to find out how to send invites to others :(
