Google Voice is now available to the general public, but that's not enough for some users. At the time of this writing, an online petition asking Google to release a desktop app for the Voice application had over 3,000 signatures. The petition might have been considered a silly attempt by fans to sway a company to do their bidding, but leaked images and videos of an actual Google Voice desktop app in action have been circulating to fuel the fire.

Over at TechCrunch, Michael Arrington who has to-die-for connections has been teasing the public with video evidence of his Google Voice Desktop app usage. The desktop softphone app is an unreleased version of Google's Voice and Gizmo5 combo. The software still bares the Gizmo5 branding and a few weeks ago Google even hinted at killing off the desktop app project altogether.
