Hmmh, most of all those infos were given in the original message, see 
below ;-). HTC Hero rooted with Android 2.1 VillainRom9.0.0 Sip client 
is SipDroid (tested few others but never got them connecting to our 
Asterix). OpenVPN drains battery in less then 4 hours without calling.

SipDroid is able to connect using 3G, I use it from time to time.

How I use my mobile phone:

. in the office, connected through WIFI with Asterisk server: can pass 
and receive calls, any technologie
. out of the office: incoming calls to office numbers are routed to my 
mobile number after x seconds of no answer from the office phones. My 
mobile subscription include free calls to few landlines numbers 24h/24h 
7d/7d: one of them is the office number. Calling this number give me an 
IVR from where I can enter the number I wish to call using our SIP routes.

As I told, the best SIP client I had is Nokias one. Fully integrated, 
working out of the box.
