Official Google Voice App Approved For iOS

silverpig writes "Apple has finally approved the official Google Voice app for iOS. After 16 months of being in app-review limbo, the app is finally here, but only for users in the US, and not for iPod Touch users. An interesting use for the app would be to use it as a dialing front end on an iPod touch in concert with a VOIP service, but it seems like this isn't an option for now. It seems like non-US users can get the app if they have a US iTunes account. You can create a US iTunes account without a credit card by following this Apple article."

    This is clearly an attack on Adobe somehow!

    I don't understand the logistics of it, but I'm sure it somehow ruins flash on the iPhone.

    I can. What I can't believe is that apple phones aren't required equipment in S&M parlors yet.

    It's the crappy battery technology. A few shocks and that's the end of the iSM session until recharge.

    And I don't think they work well with the leather gloves.

    These, of course, are just uneducated guesses. No firsthand knowledge at all.

    "How about the GPS unit in your car?"

    I can log in as root to the GPS I have in my car. Then again, I wrote a bunch of the software for it for my job...at a company that makes GPSs for cars...
