Unofficial Google Voice app now available for the Palm Pre

Unofficial Google Voice app now available for the Palm PreDespite the recent uproar that we have been seeing in regards to Apple or AT&T or maybe both being responsible for all of the Google Voice apps being pulled from the App Store, it seems that the life of Google Voice does indeed continue.  Of course, in this instance it is continuing on the Palm Pre.

One of the latest apps to become available for the Pre is called dkGoogleVoice and is being made available by d0lph1nK1ng Software.  What we can tell you so far is that the app is available (just not yet in the App Catalog) and it is free.  In terms of features, dkGoogleVoice will allow the user to make calls and dial from your contact list as well as sending SMS messages.  Sounds like it has the basics covered, but unfortunately it was also noted as being “under development” which means that (according to the developer) “it has a lot of bugs.”

As of now, there has not been any mention as to when we can expect a final App Catalog version which means that in the meantime, this will have be downloaded and installed using the .ipk file.  Still, at least the Pre has a Google Voice option available.
