Follow the prompts.
Once you have created an account simply sign in. The basic gmail screen appears above. If you activate "Chat", you will see a green "Call phone" icon under the Chat heading.
You can use your contacts as listed or select the phone icon to bring up a touchpad to enter a phone number.
