Checking voicemail on my cellphone has always been a chore. I know in my voicemail greeting I say that you should leave your name and number, but honestly, when you do I really hate it. I hate checking and listening (and waiting) for voicemail too. That’s why AT&T’s latest upgrade for the Bold is nice because it finally brings visual voicemail to the device. As far as I know, the only other device doing such a thing is the iPhone (somebody correct me in the comments if I’m wrong), but from what I hear, it sucks on the iPhone because AT&T won’t fix some delivery problems with it.
But so far, with my limited testing, visual voicemail works quick and it saves a lot of my time. I like it! If you’ve got a BlackBerry Bold, just upgrade your OS to the latest version and you’ll have a visual voicemail button added to your home screen.
Yes yes, welcome to two years ago.
of course, I’m still waiting for MMS.
I wouldn’t be so quick to add a snarky comment especially when your phone doesn’t include technology from 5+ years ago that comes standard on just about every phone these days.
nice! i just upgraded and now have to figure out how to set this up. until now i’ve been using VyMail (app) which has been working really well for me.
