Ray obviously didnt read this:

youve got 3 options. the GTK/openmoko stack (what Ray was likely talking about), Android and Qtopia

and thats not including Asterisk/Ekiga/etc over Wifi


if you want to make cals right now, qtopia is praobly your best bet, in the 3 month to 1 year time frame, Android probably is. after that, maybe something completely nonproprietary will pop up (Eg the GTK stuff will be finished)
