google talk gone from market?

[el0heem]

I recently restored my tablet because i have to send it back to sony for a repair (headphone jack was faulty) and i tried to reinstall some basic every day use apps, but google talk seems to be missing from the market?

I searched the market on my laptop to be sure it was gone, and i cannot find it. can anyone else see if they can confirm this so i don't seem like a mad man?

I couldn't find it in the market either because I believe that's an app that's preinstalled only; some vendors have deals with yahoo, etc., and do not want google talk preinstalled or even available. It is, however, presintalled on the tablet since apparently I have it on mine. It's listed under "talk," not "google talk" so maybe there's the error as well. Let us know what you find out!

With es file manager you can copy the .apk file from /system/apps/
