In addition to the forwarding, I can have up to 3 or 5 addresses and they do some nifty spam filtering. Very happy with this.

I don't really see the value in this. For $8/year you can get your own domain name and then just set up Gmail Apps to handle your email. And you get to choose your email domain instead of having the pobox.com one. Plus, when you send email it will come from your default email address instead of mail going to pobox.com and coming from the forwarded account.
