You have to keep both. If SIP seems more to be the future in Europe and 
North America, Asia and Japan are more H323. And in my opinion, quality 
of H323 is better today, but there is a lack of good client comparing to 
SIP in Windows world.

3) has my preference

Using FWD like in 3) bring us also another extension: IAX client will 
also be able to reach you through your FWD number.
