I'd just like to point out in a friendly manner that non-carrier- requiring VOIP apps have been said to be restricted from the Android Marketplace. (afaik, iSkoot is being touted as VOIP, but requires utilization of voice and data plan of a carrier to get hooked into Skype's voip system... ie 'normal carrier charges apply')
http://blog.wired.com/business/2008/09/three-years-and.html article quote: '[they] "worked with Google" to make sure Android couldn't run VOIP' I'm not sure about distribution outside the marketplace, and I'm generally not an expert. This is mostly my impression, so others, please correct where I'm wrong. Cheers!
