Gizmo5 is under Google Voice now

The news came last week and the news is a big one. Google Voice has acquired Gizmo5 voip service. This means that GOoGle is now focusing more on the voip technology and probably it will integrate its Google Voice service with Gizmo5.

Gizmo5 is one of the best SIP softphones and voip provider. It will be interesting to see if Google switch to Gizmo5 softphone over Gtalk. Also if people give preference to Google Voice over Skype.

Guys share your views over this takeover.
