It wouldn't be so bad if it hadn't happened right after they killed Gizmo, which I was relying on for my primary number.

Salt on a wound; ugh.

I don't know, but I am willing to bet it isn't a coincidence that Gizmo5 is shutting down around the same time as hints of SIP for Google Voice #'s is leaking.

Most people seem to be misunderstanding this, but the recently discovered GV+SIP support is not a replacement for Gizmo SIP accounts. It allows other SIP users to call GV numbers transparently, but it doesn't allow SIP clients to act as GV clients purely over VoIP.

Again, I am just purely speculating, but I suspect that the discovered support was just a small part of a full SIP client.
