Those who’ve been using iPhone, would have fallen in great love with its visual voice mail feature. It’s kind of handy that you have a list of the voice mail and choose which one that you wanna listen to. The visual voice mail on Apple iPhone definitely comes in very handy, which helps a lot in business use, such as the handiness that you can choose some important voice mails to get them saved. And digging it out to listen to it again anytime.
For those who own an iPhone, it’s definitely hard for you to adapt to changing to another non-iPhone mobile. Maybe just for one simple reason i.e. the handiness of the iPhone’s visual voice mail simply remains unforgettable to you.
But for those who have not yet owned an iPhone and will have no plan to own one in the near future, but you’d like to try out the visual voice mail feature on other cellphones. Here you go, an application, called SimulSays delivered to you by PhoneTag, allows you to enjoy the visual voice mail on those Windows Mobile-based smart phones or BlackBerry phones.
PhoneTag is a company that provides transcription service to convert the content of voice mail messages into text. Now, it’s got a separate application that allows you to have a visual log of who’ve left voicemail messages. So you can have a nice visual list of your voicemail on your cellphone, and select the voicemail that you wanna listen only, similar to what the iPhone has.
SimulSays can be used in conjunction with the PhoneTag’s transcription service, and is free for PhoneTag’s existing users. But if you wanna get SimulSays alone, then you’ll be charged $4.99 per month, after the 7-day free trial.
SimulSays presents similarly to what the iPhone does, shows you couple of details about your voicemail messages, including the name of the caller or just the number if it’s not in your address book, and the date and time of each message. You can then reply a selected voicemail by phone, SMS or email, or forward the voicemail as an attached audio file in an email.
SimulSays works well with almost all Windows Mobile smartphones, but works fine only with a few BlackBerry phones, which are BlackBerry Pearl (T-Mobile and Cingular), BlackBerry 8800 (T-Mobile and Cingular), Blackberry Curve (Cingular).
