How does it take a lot less time than iDialer?

I press the green talk button, iDialer appears, I dial a number, press talk.. 3-4 seconds later my phone rings, I answer, call connects.

As for GV SMS, I'm not worried, my plan has free unlimited SMS. Once all my friends have sent me at least one SMS via GV, all I have to is save that number in their contacts entry for all future messages to go through GV.
