	Gizmo Project - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Gizmo Project is the name of a peer-to-peer VoIP network and of a proprietary freeware soft phone for that network.
		Unlike its competitor network Skype, the Gizmo Project network is based on open standards, the Session Initiation Protocol and Jabber.
		However, the Gizmo Project client is closed source.

		Gizmo, “a free phone for your computer,” allows you to connect to other users of the Gizmo network (Gizmo to Gizmo) using your computer for absolutely no cost.
		Support for the Gizmo Project is provided in the Gizmo Project Forums by fellow users.
		I was required to use Gizmo for a recent project to communicate with the team.

	GigaOM : » Will Gizmo Project thwart Skype?
		I think Gizmo project is fairly good on both accounts, and like Skype, it also uses the GIPS voice engine.
		Spero che Gizmo aiuti a ridurre l’opacità di Skype.
		I got Gizmo specifically to use with business conference training calls and would like to recommend it to others in my group … but think it would be rather annoying to hear dozens of ‘Call being recorded’ messages every time someone records the training.

	Project Gizmo challenges Skype \| The Register
		However, Skype's current pre-eminent position is now facing a serious challenge with the launch of Project Gizmo, the latest brainchild of Michael Robertson, the founder of MP3.com and Linspire.
		The major difference between the two, lies in the fact that Project Gizmo has been built using an open source philosophy around the emerging SIP standards.
		Project Gizmo IP telephony software is currently available in beta versions for Mac OSX, Microsoft Windows XP and Windows 2000 platforms, with a Linux version due for release in the next few months.

	Gizmo Project, Google Talk/Skype Killer?
		Gizmo is a free VoIP client that uses the same Global IP Sound engine that is built into Google Talk.
		Unlike Skype, Gizmo makes use of this standard, which allows you to make free calls to any other SIP number, regardless of what network that number is on.
		I love Gizmo, incredibly stable and comes with all the features that are only now being touted by the "competition" for free as opposed to being charged for it, the quality is fantastic.

	GigaOM : » Gizmo Project not that open after all
		Gizmo Project has garnered some decent press and kudos from the VoIP blogger community.
		The reason Gizmo accounts are set up with SIPphone (Gizmo’s creator), is that the voice compression codecs at the core are dramatically better when it is Gizmo to Gizmo calling, all the way down to a dialup connection.
		It’s true the Gizmo software is not open source, there are licensing limitations which prevent that from happening, but to me that’s the least important component of creating a well functioning VOIP world where consumers avoid lock-in.

	Softphones Reviewed: Gizmo Project
		Gizmo Project, launched in July 2005 by SIPphone, is a SIP-based VoIP service, the brain-child of Michael Robertson of Linspire and MP3.com fame.
		Gizmo members purchase Call Out time in blocks of $10 or more, and their PSTN calling time is metered.
		Our dominant impression of Gizmo Project is that it does more than other softphones (at least the ones we've reviewed so far) to broaden the reach of telephony, to take advantage of related computer-based technologies, and to embrace the 'open' spirit of the Internet.

	Gizmo Project and Bonjour
		Aug 27, 2005 - 04:40 PM The new Gizmo Project, which is touted at http://www.gizmoproject.com as superior to Skype, adds a new Bonjour Service to the Windows XP (or Windows 2000, or Windows NT) Services folder.
		What Bonjour does for Gizmo is it finds two or more Gizmo's that may be behind the same network and sets up a P2P connection to each other.
		Because other applications may install the Bonjour Service, the Gizmo Project installer/uninstaller has to try to intelligently determine if Gizmo is the one installing it.

	Gizmo Project Wishlist. SIP Software Roadmap? at The Apple Blog
		The fact that the Gizmo Project gives me a “phone number” is a bit confusing to me. It looks like a regular phone number, but nobody can call me at it from a normal phone.
		Gizmo could push the Address Book concept even further by showing all OS X Address Book contacts that have a phone number, to further monetize their “Call Out” service.
		Gizmo and skype are much the same on the free calls but on the cheap outcalls Skype wins hands down.

		The problem we were having was that the plug-in architecture for adium was not as plug-in-able as we would have liked, so we are waiting for v1.0 and hope that will work with the plug-in without us rebuilding for every new build of adium.

	Evil Genius Chronicles » Gizmo Project
		I tested the functionality with a friend who worked at UCLA and it was generally better than using either SkypeOut of the Gizmo equivalent.
		Over at the Security Catalyst, we’ve made multiple efforts to use the Gizmo Project to save members, and ourselves, money, and it just doesn’t appear to have the stability of Skype, either.
		One of the biggest complaints I’ve had, and heard from others, is attempting to use the dialpad to send DTMF to things like conference calls, and even though it sounds like a single keypress, the other end will report having heard the number two or three times.

		The Gizmo Project is the first to bring a truly-usable, user-friendly, cross-platform SIP client (Mac, Windows, Linux coming soon) to market.
		Ineen and Gizmo are still client-server SIP systems, but to truly compete with Skype, the IETF is working on P2P extensions to SIP [p2psip.org].
		Gizmo gives you "free" minutes of which you can use to test the system, but, try as I might, I was unable to make a call outside of the US, as 001, the country code for the US was prefixed onto any number I entered in.
