Here is exactly what I did:

1.Downloaded Microsoft Portrait
2.Installed onto PDA's
3.Opened application
4.Click on Call/OK button
5.Type in IP address of other PDA or PC
6.Talk or Text Chat

Just some notes: I have installed it on my Axims, the quality is great as long as you dont get to close to the mic. I ran it while connected via DHCP to my access point. I will eventually try connecting ad-hoc to check the range.

I installed the PC version on my Win2k machine as well. I was able to dial out, receive calls and chat back and forth. Although I was not able to speak from my pc, I was able to hear myself from my Axim.

The program is all IP based, but you dial the address like a phone number.
I will include some screenshots later.
