Google removes Visual VoiceMail from Android market, presumably over payment issues

In a move that reminds us of Apple's recent actions, Google has yanked PhoneFusion's popular Visual VoiceMail app from its Android Market. Google's reason for removing the app, which has nearly 1 million downloads? According to a PhoneFusion representative quoted by GigaOm, Google appears to feel that the application violates section 3.3 of the Android Market Developer Distribution Agreement, which pertains to use of Google's payment processing system.

PhoneFusion's application is free to users, but the company makes its revenue by up-selling premium services, such as voicemail transcription. It accepts payment for these upgrades through its own website, just as Amazon does with books purchased for its Kindle application.

What Reviews say about 'Nokia N8' ? great phone Nokia N8 review - best camera phone ever:Mobileburn.com Hardware-wise the best phone on the planet by some margin. The N8 is incredible. I must admit the N8 is possible the best mass market Nokia made so far. Best camera ever and superb video quality. The N8 camera is amazing for taking pics and recording hd video, i watch HD films in hd and 5.1 dolby surround, play high def games etc all on my hd tv with the n8 plugged in. excellent speaker Nokia N8:MobileTechReview We've come to expect excellent voice quality and reception from Nokia and the N8 delivers superb voice quality on both incoming and outgoing ends. 3G reception is just average rather than stellar, but we'll cut Nokia some slack since they managed to get 5 bands of 3G, a very rare feat, in the N8.

Decent audio output Nokia N8 review from TechRadar UK's expert reviews of Mobile phones:TechRadar.com The Nokia N8 also doesn't have a removable battery either - the full metal chassis is completely enclosed so unless you've got a very particular screwdriver, you're not getting in to replace any innards. Superb battery life. Clear and crisp screen. superb phone Nokia N8 Review - Smartphones & PDA Phones:CNet.com The phone will often become unresponsive in simple, everyday apps — the SMS client being a favourite to stall when replying to messages from friends. The photos it takes tend towards a colder, more natural palette, but you can spice this up with a vibrant colour mode, or after the fact in the N8's built in Photo Editor. The N8's 12-megapixel camera is probably the best camera phone we've ever used, taking photos extremely quickly and featuring the best digital zoom we've come across. The key... the Nokia N8’s touchscreen keyboard is absolutely brilliant. Nokia N8 review:Knowyourmobile.com Couple this with the fact that the Nokia N8 can potentially carry 48GB of data on board and you’ve got yourself a smartphone that doubles up as a nice external hard drive as well, so you can take your movies with you wherever you go. Overall, this is an absolutely fantastic smartphone. We downloaded a few film trailers during testing and hooked the N8 up to our 32-inch HD TV back home and the results were pretty impressive, especially with the N8’s built-in Dolby Digital Plus sound and the h...
