Just because it worked for somebody, it doesn't means it can work for
you. In theory, yes uLaw is supposed to work with faxing, but the
chances of sending a fax successfully is quite slim in the real world.

Google voice was intended for voice in the first place, not for
faxing. Yes I know, somebody did manage to get the fax through mainly
because he was plain lucky or he had an ISP that can actually handle
VoIP correctly.

To sum it up, the simple answer to GV faxing: If you like to play with
fire, go ahead and try. I'm telling you this because I've been there
and done that, faxing over uLaw isn't pretty at all.
