The video won't work but the voice will. You have to be running a SIP
client on the N800 like Gizmo and be calling another Gizmo user or a
user on a SIP provider that openly peers with GizmoProject.

I use Gizmo but I wouldn't love for someone to make a plugin for the
built-in VoIP infrastructure and just adds SIP capability to it ...
but I guess it is easier said than done.
