Talkatone uses your contacts to help make phone calls. The most complicated step in making this whole thing work is to setup your Google Voice account. Google will assign you a free phone number with an area code near your location. Google Voice has so many cool features I would recommend getting setup even if you have no desire to use your iPad for calling. I use my Google Voice account to send free text messages to avoid the crazy charges that Verizon and ATT like to charge for texting.
Talkatone will work over 3G or Wifi connections. The speakerphone on the iPad 2 is surprisingly excellent. I have had no complaints when using it to make phone calls. You can also receive calls on your iPad if your friends starting using your Google Voice phone number.
