To be honest, A lot of people are blaming Apple for the whole Google Voice thing - I'm pretty sure that Apple were pressured to remove it by AT&T. Skype only got away with being published because it only works for calls over wifi.
As for all the other GV apps, I'm pretty sure they were only removed because AT&T became aware of them as a side effect of the official app being published.
- jacquesm 17y agoAT&T claims high and low that they were not involved. Either that's the truth or shredders are running, the FCC has asked that question explicitly and that was AT&Ts answer: "AT&T does not manage or approve applications for the App Store" Which pretty much leaves Apple to talk their way out of this on their own. Nice to have partners.
- yumraj 17y agoLet me ask a simple Qs: Why would AT&T (if it was involved) ask to only remove the GV app on iPhone? Wouldn't Blackberry and Android have lost their GV apps too? Blackberry and Androind users can still user GV apps, and AT&T has denied any involvement in this fiasco, leads me to believe it was all Apple's doing.
