Update: v1.1 should be hitting the Marketplace soon; here's a list of fixes & features

For those who like to use Google Voice, there's a new app in town that may be the one everyone has been waiting for: GVoice.

The app will push messages to you, transcribe voicemail, allow you to enable/disable devices and even pull down contact photos. It fetches for $3.99, which is a bit pricey, but we imagine that's to cover the costs of running a push server. There's a free trial too but it has no push notifications.

Is it better than GoVoice ($2.99)? Hard to say but we'll put the through their paces and compare/contrast the two. Stay tuned.

Grab it here (opens Zune Desktop)
