I don't mean to hijack the thread, but DialCentral + Gizmo5 works great for making and receiving free calls over Wifi or 3G, if you're lucky enough to have a Gizmo5 account (or other SIP provider?) before the Google Voice/Gizmo5 takeover.

You can use a Gizmo5/SIP number as one of your forwarding phones in Google Voice (to receive calls)... and then use your Gizmo5/SIP number as the callback number with Google Voice/DialCentral to initiate SIP calls (over Wifi or 3G).

Works great with DialCentral and the built-in SIP support on the n810 (or n8x0?) and n900.

(Search the forum here for SIP configuration details)

And continued thanks to epage for DialCentral development
