It works nicely for home use for power users who can accept the odd lost
call and know how to restart the app or the phone when something goes
wrong. Unfortunately I haven't found anything so far which works for
business use.
The largest problem is that smartphones can't afford (battery-wise) to
check for wifi connectivity all the time. If the phone loses connection
to the wifi, it often takes more than a minute before it is ready to
receive calls again.

iPhone, Android, and Symbian are about equally troublesome.
