Firms Create Visual Voicemail for Mass-Market Handsets

Yesterday, 2:30 PM source: Action Engine / SimulScribe
Action Engine and Acision worked together to create a visual voicemail service for BREW, Java and Windows Mobile phones. The on-device application will allow operators to offer visual voicemail services to their subscribers. The application replaces the standard voicemail box and lets users see and scroll through their voicemails, play messages in any order, and manage them like email. It also converts voicemails to text and sends them to an email address of your choosing. The service is similar to SimulScribe's visual voicemail product for BlackBerries and Windows Mobile (beta). SimulScribe's service allows users to consolidate all their voice lines into a single voicemail box where they are converted to emails and sent to your BlackBerry or Windows Mobile device so they can be read and managed more easily.

Yea! This works pretty good on my blackberry (SimulScribe), as i always get voicemail whenever I'm in office and can't take calls. I haven't tried this other one though.... Nice Find Sass...:avatar137493_6:

As far as SimulScribe, i believe it has to be either a BB or WM phone, as for the one you posted about, not sure. If it says Java phones, then technically it should work on any phone with Java, which is almost any phone out there. One thing to ponder though....will T-mobile block the access of the application like they do with others on their own phones, such as Opera and such....I'll have to find out more about this thing you posted....always giving me extra work....:Missy::alol2:

. Pricing
7 days free!

40 messages for only $9.99 a month.

$0.25 for each additional message.


I hope it gets cheaper, that's kinda steep. It sounds cool, but not cool enough to shell out 10 bucks a month extra for only 40 messages, plus a quarter for each additonal message.
