I am told the new BlackBerry application will allow Google Voice users to place calls on their devices and have recipients’ calls display the Google Voice number. You will also have the ability to view voicemail transcripts within the application as opposed to through the mobile web. The service is FREE from Google except for Google Voice charges for international calls and what you get charged by your carrier.
To download and install OTA from your BlackBerry browser, go here. For more information, see this page.
I’ve added a couple extra screenshots from the BlackBerry here. The first shot is of the Google Voice app open on the BlackBerry showing two messages in the voicemail box. The second shot is of a voicemail playing in the application, showing the transcription as submitted by Google. I laughed when I saw the ONE mistake in the transcription was “the doors testing” when what I actually had said was “with Google Voice”. The only part of the transcription that was wrong, was the name of application itself. Go figure.
