Could Google Voice boost Palm Pre sales?

As we all know by now Apple recently yanked all Google Voice applications from their App Store. These programs made using the iPhone in conjunction with a Google Voice account much simpler. While people have been arguing over who is to blame for the sudden yanking – the Palm Pre development community has been working on their version of a Google Voice application. One of the first, dkGoogleVoice has reached early testing. The interface looks smooth and while it still has some beta bugs – the ability of a Google Voice application can’t hurt Palm’s Pre fortunes. A quick video of the application in use after the break.

Here’s a (blurry) video of the (beta) Palm Pre dkGoogleVoice application sending SMS messages on the Palm Pre using Google Voice:

    It’s early, but its this big brother Apple attitude that is going to open a decent window of opportunity for the Pre to digg in. Combined with the overpriced under performing AT&T network and in 6 to 12 months, things should be getting very interesting.
