What is your GVoice-VOIP setup?

I've been on that t-mobile plan for a few months using GrooveIP for GVoice-VOIP, but keep thinking there is a better way.

I've tried Talkatone, Sipdroid, and Groove IP. GrooveIP is easily the best (sadly). Tighter integration sure would be swell, but it seems a lost cause. It works well enough, especially for receiving calls while on Wifi. Beats the hell out of paying for minutes, though.

Have you tried Talkatone? It's not perfect but seems to be working pretty well for me so far...

I've also been texting more on my smartphone than I did on the dumbphone, especially since installing TouchPal.
