Google Voice Update for Honeycomb In the Works, For Now Tablet Users Left in the Dark
Because the Motorola XOOM doesn’t send and receive calls in the traditional sense, it might not be too surprising that a version of Google Voice enabled for Honeycomb devices was not available from the get-go. But for those who want the same sort of access to their voicemail offered on their Android smartphones and desktop computers, there have been quite a few left disappointed by Voice not working properly on the tablet.
In a Google support thread, it was confirmed that Voice is not compatible with Honeycomb at the moment, but a Honeycomb version was promised for the future. That version is currently in the works.
We suppose we could contrive some sort of conspiracy keeping a service that enables some phone-like features off of a 3G tablet being sold by a wireless carrier, but we’ll save that for those of you in the comments. Anyone feeling the hurt of no Google Voice on their XOOM?
