I did set up a Gizmo account for testing that, and a WengoPhone account.

Thanks for the suggestions.
NP. I'm not sure if FWD supports any video codecs on their SIP service. If you're looking to set up Asterisk there are a couple things that might come in handy:

Wiki page on the state of Asterisk video support:

As far as enabling support for a couple SIP clients in Asterisk sip.conf, I have:

Code:
[general] 
videosupport=yes
And then a few additions in each client account:

Code:
[n800]
... other settings ...
nat=yes
qualify=yes
videosupport=yes
canreinvite=no
disallow=all
allow=g729
allow=h263
allow=h263p
