To make and receive calls using Google Voice via SIP, you need to run a server that is able to do this 'conversion' for you.
I originally tried asterisk as the server, and had nothing but problems getting it to work. Calls would ring my phone, but when I answered it would immediately hang up. Asterisk would crash, and I would miss calls, etc.
I finally bit the bullet and configured Yate as a SIP server for Google Voice. I haven't had any issues that the mailing list wasn't able to solve yet (someone even wrote a guide to press 1 to automatically accept incoming calls), and haven't had any crashing issues. I wrote a guide on setting it up if anyone's interested:

Nice! Is it possible to get this running on the n900?
Also: Why can't I thank your post?

It looks like you can't thank posts in the 'Off Topic' forums.
I spent some time trying to get YateClient (the softphone / gui version of yate) working on the n900, and had some success. I got it into extras-devel, but I had issues getting audio to work (and the interface would have to be modified to work on the small screen).
I didn't try, but it should be possible to get the yate server to run on the n900, and then register a sip account to localhost. Interesting idea...

@Off topic: D'oh! Should've noticed.
@Yate server + locahost sip access: Interesting trick! Me want!
