The rejection of the Google voice application is the primary reason I have not upgraded to iPhone4 and was instead planning on switching to Android when my contract was up. I always felt they had the right to reject the app but for me, it was a case of Apple making a decision that was bad for me but good for them, which is exactly the kind of behavior from the carriers and other that I was trying to avoid by buying an iPhone. If they do approve the official gVoice app, I may consider sticking with iPhone over Android. I may finally be able to get rid of my gVoice text message to email to Prowl setup that I am currently running.
First the revision of the language restrictions, then the publication of the App Store guidelines, and now this. I suspect Apple had a run-in with the FCC that gave them considerable cause for concern.
Notifo just integrated GV Connect so you can open the Google Voice push notifications in a native app instead of jumping through the mobile safari stuff.
