Curious about Mac support for voice chat on Gtalk

I'm not sure when / if a mac version of gtalk will come out, or even if
it's necessary..
ichat and adium both allow me to connect to gtalk from my ibook, and so
does the web based chat feature built right into gmail's web interface,
but as best I can tell, none of these allow me to voice chat from my
mac with somebody over gtalk.

I thought this jingle software

was supposed to allow other software programs to include that voip
functionality as well. Anybody know if ichat or adium will be using
that jingle software in upcoming versions to enable voip through gtalk?

I just heard this crazy news about everybody on AIM getting an aim
phone number so people could call straight to your computer..

That, and they want to give myspace a run for their advertising money.
things are getting interesting in VOIP lands.. As if skype needed more
competition... how much cheaper can phone calling get?
