Upcoming Features/Enhancements

You can tell the current CID because it is the one not listed in the drop-down. It would just be more convenient to see it when you first access the page.

The Devices page shows primarynumber@ipaddress: port1 on the primary number page, and secondarynumber@ipaddress: port2 on the secondary number page.

So yes, two different numbers. With some limited exceptions (e.g., BYOD), it is no different from having two separate accounts. When I signed up for VOIPo, I ported our PSTN number as the primary number and our Lingo number as a Virtual number. The cloned line was frankly always a compromise, and didn't work very well with our two-line phone. With this change, it is not really any different from having the two lines again.

Then that really needs improvement!

Just like you set a network preference,
it lists below the actual server.
The Outbound CID should be clearly listed below the Drop-down.
The way it is, people will be thinking its the one displayed.
They will likely be looking frantically for their Main number and it won't be listed.
I predict a possible spike in support calls.

Yes, the page could be improved some. After playing with it, you realize real fast how it works. Really cool feature. Kudos to VOIPo.

I'm puzzled my the "Mobile" tab. Why the "mobile" restriction? Seems quite happy to accept my Google Voice number - I guess there's a certain amount of mobility built into it :-).

Right. "Mobile" because it is away from you VOIPo phone. I believe this is the same tab that used to be labeled "SMS," but now it has many more uses: SMS, CID, VOIPo Connect, etc.

In some parts of the world, "mobile" == "cell" (US). Perhaps a different term to avoid confusion?

Cell is likely the main way to use it.
Probably the main intention, too.
In other parts of the world, its unlikely there is a local access number.
