Thank to Frank and Steve for your answers

My understanding is that you need to place on operator premise an
equipment that checks first the availability of the user on VoIP. If
not registered, it's routing the call through the cellular network.
Is it correct ?

But during the handover (wifi to GSM), how does it works ? Is it the
operator that initiates a call on the GSM network. If so, I guess the
mobile device need to have some logic to seamlessly switch between the
2 channels, isn't it ?
If it's the mobile device that initiates the call to the GSM network,
it will also require some logic to do that.

So my question is, is the handover something standard in every mobile
device supporting GSM and VoIP or do you require an extra piece of
software to do the trick ?
Is this principal applies to every "transport technology", I mean VoIP
through WIfi or VoIP over 3G ?

Thanks in advance
Patrick
