Hi Daniel, I'm also using letsencrypt since their beta program. The only issue I see is that the certs expire after 90 days, which means you will have to manually change them before those 90 days are up. They have an automated process to get new certs and insert them in the correct virtual hosts in apache, but I doubt they have any kamailio automation setup yet.
Besides that, which is no big deal, just takes more time until someone writes a script to automate the kamailio process of requesting new certs and replacing the expired ones, I'm a big fan of Letsencrypt and I recommend it to anyone that takes security seriously and doesn't want to participate in enriching the CA "mafia".
