Hello saycheese,

I have been toying with this idea, I haven't actually done it myself but I know people that have.

1) get a VOIP provider to give you a free iNum number

2) download signal to your smartphone or ipod of choice

3) during the registration phase, delete the number that it suggests, replace it with the iNum number from step 1.

4) make sure to have the registration process do the "voice call" method where it calls you and reads you off the registration number.

5) register.

Assuming that you already own a cellphone and you use a free voip app like csipsimple or linphone. iNums are free from most voip providers. Then this process costs nothing.
