Google is shutting down the Infinite SMS App. The Infinite SMS app, which cost US$0.99 and let users send unlimited text messages from an iPod or iPhone, quickly became one of the 10 most-downloaded apps in the iPhone Store after its release last month.

Google said it would continue to offer free SMS through Google Talk, but it will block Infinite SMS and other non-Google clients that use the service to deliver text messages starting on Wednesday.
“Infinite SMS is a third party app that has been using Google technology to provide free SMS to users, while we were paying for the cost of the text messages,” a Google spokesman said via e-mail.
Infinite SMS was popular with iPod touch users who wanted to send text messages as if they had iPhones, according to Inner Fence.
