Verizon launches Visual Voice Mail

We’ve talked about this back in June. Following the iPhone release, many people realised they could benefit from the visual voicemail. Verizon and Sprint saw its chance and started working on it. Sprint users can already use the service through such handsets as Samsung Instinct. Verizon subscribers, on the other, still wait for the carrier to unleash its offering…

That has just changed with the carrier launching its visual voicemail service. At this moment, only a single handset is supported, LG Voyager, but we’re sure Verizon will bring all the glory of VVM to other phones as well. In the meantime, if you own a revamped version of the LG Voyager, aka Voyager Refresh, hop over to this page at Verizon’s website and take it from there.

The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
