When they originally launched SIPphone, they licensed the X-Pro phone from X-ten, but the Gizmo Project softphone has always been a completely different beast.
Later versions include the ability to sign up for one other service provider AS WELL AS Gizmo Project/SIPphone, however I don't believe you can ONLY use it through another provider, and GP does some odd things with the Contact header that are... nonstandard. When REGISTERING with another provider, it uses a Contact header with a GP username/ip, requiring that all calls be initially routed back through GP's servers. They say this is for logging purposes, but it certainly makes for an ugly data path. We actually had to reconfigure our servers just to allow for the GP users who would occasionally register directly.
