http://www.fring.com is a startup company similar to the local mxit but instead of offering texting services they offer VOiP services. It integrates with GTalk, Skype, MSN and their own custom service. I tested it out quick with my mate over GTalk and it worked very nicely.
Its a free service but I'm not sure for how long as its in BETA phase. At the moment it looks like it has only been developed for Nokia phones but there is an "other" option. Had a chat to my bud for a minute or two and if only took about 15c off my account.
MTN subscribers beware, MTN might nail you hectically on that because its a VOiP call. I saw article somewhere about it and I cannot remember if this *has* been implemented or whether its *going* to be implemented.
Enjoy!
