Android apps are becoming available in AppStore now but you can go ahead and install by converting .apk to .bar files yourself.

If you are looking for a GTalk app then I have seen a few paid ones in the AppStore but I am not sure about their quality.
Infact I find free apps in android are better than the paid ones in BB store.
