Apple Rejects Google Voice App, Invites Regulation
July 28, 2009
Apple rejected the official Google Voice Application for the iPhone and removed long-standing, third-party applications for Google's much-touted, but invite-only phone enhancement service. The official explanation is that these apps duplicate features on the iPhone, but the real reason is that these particular "duplications" strike at the core of the services offered by exclusive U.S. partner AT&T.
