I won’t dwell on why it took so long for it to happen, but through an update last week the Google team quietly pushed out a Honeycomb-ready update to Google Voice. We didn’t notice tablet support when we initially reported on the update, which included a few bug fixes but no noticeably major additions. But this little surprise makes the update even tastier. No longer must tablet owners jump through hoops just to check their voicemails and send SMS messages via their Android 3.0+ device. The update brings voice to version 0.4.2.36. It is now available in the Android Market.

Now I’m sure many of you will be like “Well wait a minute there buck-o, Google Voice isn’t quite working to well here in Canada” If you still haven’t been able to get your Google Voice working, then maybe you have not found the numerous workarounds available.
Google Offers many ways to get around this, if you willing to get your hands a little dirty. Search “Google Voice in Canada” for many how-to guides to get this working for you.
Have you successfully used one of the Google Voice workarounds in Canada? Have you tried it on your tablet yet? Give us a little feedback.
