    Their own service could be a good idea. Cutting google out would just be petty. Nothing says desperation like being afraid of competition.



    still waiting.

    Nothing petty about it. Google's invading Apple's and Microsoft's space. No reason Apple (and Microsoft) shouldn't return the favor. I'm pretty sure the divorce is final.



    And, at the end of the day, all Google really have going for them (revenue-wise) is search and AdWords. Unless you think freebies subsidized on the back of search and AdWords is somehow "competing"?



    BTW, did you ever manage to get your hands on a copy of the GV app?

    So little of anything you post make any sense. Please read your first paragraph and see if you can translate any of that gibberish into something relevant to the discussion or reality. Not one sentence there makes sense, I won't bother parsing it for you.



    That may be all google has going for them, in your always limited opinion, but then it has done pretty well for them, no?



    You were so certain that I worked for google, why would you assume I don't have the app? I haven't, since Apple hasn't approved it, or did you miss that news? GV Mobile is freely available for JB iphones, if I choose to go that route.



    It's funny, but the more you post, the more I realize you often don't really understand the topics your are replying to. This thread is a perfect example. For future reference, you might notice that people with valid points don't have to resort to fabrications to make their points...doing so would shoot their credibility all to hell.



    Any luck with your search for info to back up your 'assertions'? You and I know you can't, but we know why you don't often back up your claims...don't we.
