I've been playing with my new Android phone, installed CSipSimple and happily called my iTalk landline via a 2Talk free Sip account. Works Well - at least for 15minutes per month.

I would love to use the phone via iTalk - but i understand they allow 1 device per account (without going to Asterisk). When i use the iTalk SIP registration - the PAP2T stops receiving calls. 

Ideally the Android phone could use the 3G when not on WIFI, so i'm looking for the best way forward  - is it buying another $10/month VOIP/SIP plan from iTalk or similar ???

ideas - recommendations - siproxd? asterisk?

Thanks, Paul.

SIP registrations can only be used from a single device. The last device to register will always receive the inbound call, and every registration period (typically 180 - 360 seconds) this will change.

2talk gets around this by creating a ring group style feature that gives you additional numbers and rings them all together.

I got 2talk account and registered 4 devices(spa, Iphone, iphone & nokia phone). As far as i know u can register up to 5devices per account. To do thisu will need to add -1 -2 per evry device. Ie. 04977xxxx-1 and 04977xx-2 and so on. Check their faq. Note that all devices will ring at the same time when u have incoming call.
