After all this talk about blob-only software... Skype is absolute
proof of why we shouldn't have blob-only software.  The recent
hoo-ha about it grabbing BIOS dumps and sending them back to the
servers on X86 machines really shows that software can do nasty
things.  Nobody even noticed because they do it very discretely.

Not only is there a port, but there was some banter on this list
from people who have it working on OpenBSD just last week!

The secret sauce is available for browsing so it wouldn't be that
hard to port.  I am gathering it's mostly the audio interface
that differs between Linux and BSD.

I see not the sauce for Gizmo anywhere.

http://www.freeworlddialup.com is free, and standards compliant
so you can use any SIP-compatible soft or hard-phone.  The only
thing they're really missing is callout/in, and even then they
have a project in the works for that.
