Uh oh, Google voice app video pulled from Youtube..Apple not letting it into store?

Update: TechCrunk has talked to some Googlers who tell them that Apple originally said it was going live on Friday then moved the day to Monday.    They also harsh on Apple plenty.

Our worst fears realized?  The Google speech recognition app hasn't hit the iPhone yet after being touted yesterday.  "So what?" you say?  "Give Apple a few days to look at it" you say? 

More bad news.  Google has taken the video down from Youtube.  It is also removed from its Website.   Is this just us being paranoid or has Apple slapped Google for releasing the video prior to release?...or perhaps Google was pressuring Apple to release the update by leaking the video and information to the New York Times?

We really hope this is just a blip...but just in case...Can someone call Eric Schmidt to clear this all up?

mmm sounds like they rejected it, the mobile app description here http://www.google.com/mobile/apple/ was taken down as well, yesterday they had a couple vids showing the new feautures and a long blurb on everything, now its back to normal.

Where does it say that they are making a spotlight app for the iPhone? Did you read the posting you posted?

Ditto pjsherb.
Google jumped the gun. Apple's preparing the UI for this app.

You got to finish reading the whole post... "Apple doesn’t like the search experience on its mobile devices, and may be building a radically different user experience which is much more visual than exists today. It will likely still be powered by Google results, but Apple may present it in a very different way that suits mobile users much better.

where is this app? it's getting late for a monday release. : (

Byron (not verified) | November 17, 2008 - 6:38pm

It is now officially out. It doesn't show up as updated yet, so you have to delete the one you have, and re-download it. Also, the voice recognition does not work on the 2nd gen ipod touch, even if you have a pair of headphones with a mic.
