    In the weeks leading up to the G1 launch, rumors were abound that the lack of a SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) stack in Android meant that VoIP applications were a no go. Of course, such nonsense has since been proven wrong by the likes of Skype lite (and its unofficial predecessors, such as iSkoot) – and now it sees that the VoIP train is chugging away at full speed.

    The latest to bring their VoIP offerings to everyone’s favorite Google-powered platform is Truphone, with today’s release of the free Truphone Anywhere Android application. Beyond support for their own VoIP service, the Truphone Android app also supports text chat over MSN, Yahoo!, Google Talk, and Twitter, with text/voice Skype support promised “soon”.
