Apparently Phil Zimmerman's latest project is based on shtoom:
The app is based on the shtoom project (open source VOIP written in Python) and the crypto is strapped ontop. A nice feature of the protocol is hashing part of the previous conversation’s key into the current conversation. If you and the other person read the hash aloud and they match it means that this conversation and every previous one has been fully secure.
He’s shopping the project around to venture capital right now to make a commercial product written in C. The source will still be free though.
