If you're getting the failed authenticatiion message and/or the exclamation point on the presence ico , try this:

1. go to sipphone.com
2. click "member login"
3. login with you sip #
4. click "advanced features"
5. click "clear sip registrations"
6. reboot n8x0

That solved the problem for me. Occasionally, it reverts back to the error mode, and repeating these steps fixes it.

Can you clarify where you are in the process of setting it up? Have you gotten a Grand Central # as well as signing up for Gizmo?

OK, I have everything set up but when a call to Grandcentral rings my tablet, I click on the little green phone icon it seems to answer (it switches to a red hangup icon) but I can't ever get to the phonepad to click on the number 1 to accept the call. Any help for a newb on getting theis to answer incoming calls?

Assuming your using the built in sipphone client (the one with the Presence icons..the green/red/yellow dot) then you need to click menu (either the menu button or the top left that lists the name of the application). Then look for an option that says DTFM dialing. That brings up the dial pad where you can press 1.

OK, that worked, but surelay there has to be a better way to answer the phone than jumping through those hoops every time...:(

If I ever find a better way, I'll be sure to let you know. It's not actually that hard for me (I'm use to it now). It's only a problem when my device is locked. So I have to enter the lock code. >.<
