As I already stated and as my long history shows (check all apps in my sig) I always make things available for Diablo users. This fix has even already been confirmed..
I'm logged in and on line again. Thanks VERY much Pardner.

Hi, I wanted to know if this application allowed you to do callback, as in you select a contact to call and instead of that call going out, this app interrupts it and then calls you and when you pick up it then connects you to the contact you originally wanted to call.
Also I wanted to know if this app will only work if you have a gizmo account?
Thank you in advance?

The closest thing to the sort of functionality you want is The One Ring (TOR) which presents you a list of contacts to call (your google contacts) and then sends the command to the google voice servers to give you a callback at the configured callback number.

This phone number does not have to be a Gizmo number.
It can even be a Skype In number, a home phone (land line) or a cell phone number or all of the above.

I remember reading somewhere that Symbian S60 based phones now have a Python interpreter - which means TOR should theoretically run there as well - but I don't have a Symbian phone and I don't know if Ed has tried it on any Symbian phones.
In summary: For all current and future Nokia smartphone platforms, TOR does work and should work.

Dialcentral is in Python but uses GTK which limits it to the same platforms as TOR. I've started my Qt port which if PyQt/PySlide get supported on Symbian means it would be able to run there but I have no devices to test.

More info on Google's recent changes:

Right now, it looks like if the question is, "I have Google Voice and I want to receive VoIP calls!" then it looks like the answer is (somewhat curiously) "Via the Gmail web site (Chat feature)".
Where does DialCentral come in to this picture? If I understand correctly, it would be nice for DialCentral to allow "Google Chat" as one of the forwarding options. But that's the only obvious tie-in I can see. (Other than, of course, I wish that DialCentral could be receiving calls and not Gmail, but that's up to Google in their infinite wisdom.)
LATER: Nevermind about the Google Chat option. That's part of Google Voice Settings, and I can see that DialCentral doesn't attempt to handle the Settings. But if Google ever expanded their Voice API to make and receive calls... ooooh it would be nice for DialCentral to do that.

For the current status of things you can always check the package page
http://maemo.org/packages/view/dialcentral/
(Note, what is reflected there might take time before it is reflected in the Application Manager).
EDIT: I do apologize for the 0 or so 770 users left for not making my apps available for it. Mine is a bit on the fritz (has the "can't connect in presence of 802.11n" bug if I remember correctly).
