It seems to me that if Google had designed their apps to use the built in apps in question, then Google Voice would have been approved. On the other hand, if GV was totally separate and didn't interfere with the iPhone, users could set up two phone numbers. This would allow users to have a local number where they live, and then another "local" number where grandma lives.
As for watching TV on an iPhone, foreign companies such as Softbank make a one seg tuner. http://mb.softbank.jp/mb/iphone_en/oneseg/ This has nothing to do with the 3G service as it uses normal TV broadcast signals. Too bad the states doesn't have something like this. Think of the sales you'll have during football season! ;)

the thing that's interesting is that GV Mobile was originally approved. I downloaded it from itunes the day it came out. I was later taken off. So by apple saying it was rejected is incorrect.
Apple has "40 full-time trained reviewers" and and that "at least two different reviewers study each application so that the review process is applied uniformly."
If this is the case (see above) then there are other reasons for pulling GV MObile. Bunch of B.S.

The App Store was not a 'new thing'. We were downloading third party apps a full year before Apple pulled their finger out of their proverbial ARSE!
