Apple Kills Google Voice Apps On the iPhone

molnarcs writes "Apple pulls Google Voice-enabled applications from its App Store, citing duplication of functionality. The move affects both Google's official Google Voice and third party apps like Voice Central. Sean Kovacs, main developer of GV Mobile, says that he had personal approval for his app from Phil Shiller, Apple's senior vice president of Worldwide Product Marketing, last April. TechCrunch's Jason Kincaid suspects AT&T behind the move."

Apple: Look, you're suffocating me, we need to take a break.

Google: What's wrong baby? We were doing so well together!

Apple: I TOLD YOU! I JUST NEED SOME SPACE! YOUR APPS ARE ALL OVER MY ROOM!

Google: Fine... Don't come crying to me when your MAPS stop working!

I don't get all the hype about computers. I have a Brother word processor with a 33.6k modem and it works great. I have a Dell at work and I would never pay the outrageous price to own one myself...
