If you're considering commercial apps, I've had great success with Groundwire from Acrobits. It has all of the features of a business-class SIP phone.
The push feature keeps their server registered with your SIP account for incoming calls, and alert if a call comes in. You enter the app answer the call - nice because you don't need to keep the app running in background, thus consuming less battery. They have an entry level app as well, Acrobits Softphone, without as many business features but otherwise it's the same back end. It costs a little less. On 9/2/11 8:58 AM, Terry D.
