There are hints that voice will be supported by Maemo 5 to some extent; my guess is primarily via headsets (either the wired one already included or Bluetooth preferably).

At a push, it may also support the headset-less "speaker phone" mode you can currently use with VoIP, or even sideways-holding-to-head.

I'd be surprised to see the Maemo 5 device(s) marketed as phones, and sold through normal mobile contracts though.
