Talking Google Voice Honeycomb Support

No, this isn't the same as every other thread asking about Google Voice support for Honeycomb tablets. This is more of an update on the matter. Today, Google Voice was updated and I side-loaded the Market version onto my tablet. I haven't updated the version on my tablet in a while, so maybe this isn't anything too too new. Instead of being the normal Phone UI, but bigger, now, it seems that Google has implemented a Honeycomb specific UI. I've attached a couple of screenshots of what the new Market Version of Google Voice looks like on my Transformer.

It's starting to look pretty sexy.

This next part, take with a grain of salt. Earlier, while I was updating Google Voice from the Market on my phone, I swear the "What's New" section mentioned a bunch of new features that aren't listed there now when I go back. Specifically, the features that were listed and are now removed were related to MMS, and were marked as "NEW". I'm assuming that these features will be added soon in an upcoming release.

I've noticed this as well. Have not seen anything with mms yet but that would be nice.

Yea, I actually tried MMS'ing myself just to see if maybe it was released, but they didn't want to publicize it yet, and it didn't come through. So, I'm just hoping it'll come soon in an upcoming release. That, or I was imagining the whole thing.

They also seem to have finally enabled retrieving texts / voice mails via background data as well, so there should be a lot less of a lag between the time a text / voice mail comes in and the time you know about it on your tablet. And, there's a new Honeycomb-specific Google Voice widget

The widget is nice too. It's just like the Gmail widget.

Here's a link to the app for anyone who wants to try it.

The download won't install, I think this may be the DL for phones which are NOT compatible with Honeycomb although there are rumors of Honeycomb support. I tried the DL from my EVO - it appears to be the same package and posts the alert after attempting to install it.

I just thught I'd share the results I got when I tried the attachment and the mobile apk. Of course I APOLOGIZE IN ADVANCE if I have erroneous information!
