You don't. Google Talk is based on the jabber.org protocol, and as far as I understand, that's also the protocol that delivers the voice.
Jabber is a decentralized protocol where everybody can set up their own servers etc., and user identities is based on the [EMAIL PROTECTED] schema. This means that all jabber users can contact all other jabber users, no matter what their provider is - however, Google Talk doesn't seem to allow incoming and outgoing requests to/from their system right now. Many big companies use jabber protocol based instant messaging systems, and something seems to indicate, that jabber will conquer the world. There is no inline dtmf signalling in the protocol or something equivalent that would make it suitable for connecting to asterisk, or make it suitable to replace the existing phone system. Therefore, jabber and Google Talk must be seen as a collaboration tool for computer users, and not a generic telephone tool. However, Google will probably incorporate SIP phone features in a later version of the Google Talk client application. One thing is sure: If somebody owns shares in Skype, sell them asap! :-) Lars.
