One good option is to get a different mobile device, one that will run Google's Mobile App, see here. I don't think there's a non-tech-savy way to replace Gizmo5. Sometimes it's best to select the software you want to use, then go buy the hardware to run that software.

Google Voice Discovered Allowing Pure VoIP Calls
I hope there's something worthwhile on April 1st.

I may be willing to pay upto 2 cents. I think thats the competing rate.

As far as I understand, there are voip providers which give a free incoming number and do not charge for incoming calls. This, combined with DialCentral or TOR on n810 is the way for free calls using Google voice.
There's no real need to get a new phone. the Nokia tablet series has been good enough and will continue to be for the foreseeable future.

So Google basically bought out Gizmo aka Sipphone and instead of improving the service they've now killed it for everyone except US-based Google-users while us outsiders can't even use their gtalk (to make calls to actual phones)? Is that the gist of it?
Bad Google!
And there's no way for the (former) Gizmo users to keep their long-standing 1-747-XXXetc number?
Well that's rather inconsiderate given that the users of that well-liked (except support) service are now losing their number, (fully paid for) VOIP access and native platform support. "Progress" works in mysterious ways.
This isn't a successful way to make Android look more attractive...
So, apart from copying gizmo phonebook elsewhere, what now?

Do I need to somehow get a SIP # again? And if I do, how do I get it to work with DialCentral, since I would no longer be using the Gizmo application...
Thanks!
