Skype or Gizmo

Hi all

I would want to configure my N810 tablet pour SIP calls.

But i wonder what is the best SIP client : Skype or Gizmo ?

In terms of usability, openness and ... free ?

Thanks by advance for your answers

DC: Skype doesn't do SIP, AFAIK. Skype uses its own proprietary
protocol, that lets you connect to other Skype users or phones through
the Skype gateway.

Hi,

Gizmo is a SIP client, Skype isn't. You might want to try Twinkle which
is a Free SIP client.

Cheers,
Dave.

I didn't know that Twinkle was available for the tablet.
It's not in extras or extras-devel, where can I find it?

I've chosen Gizmo based upon Skype's licensing agreement - read it
carefully.
