Google has just announced that it will be providing Google Talk for the iPhone and iPod Touch. As Google Talk will be a web application, you won’t need to download it from the AppStore, and your iPhone does not have to be jailbroken to use it. To view the Mobile Safari-based Google Talk page, point your iPhone or iPod Touch to google.com/talk. You can also access it through any browser via this link: http://talkgadget.google.com/talkgadget/m
As it is a WebApp and runs in Safari, GoogleTalk will switch your status to “Unavailable” when you are viewing another window in Safari or when you return to the home screen - it cannot run in the background. A description of the app from the Google Mobile team:
We’ve tried to keep the design as faithful to the desktop experience as possible, so it should be familiar to you. You can select from a quicklist of the people you contact most, search your contacts, and manage multiple conversations.Â
