GetVocal offers a speech-based web browser that allows people to surf the web, listen to audio books, and retrieve up-to-the-minute RSS feeds via the telephone. They currently don't have the ability to check voice mails or emails yet. Perhaps GotVoice could help...just a thought.

Seriously, this looks like a very simple technology and business that probably should have SOLD for no more than this Series A round.

It seemed like a really cool idea at first, but then logging in to retrieve messages is just as time consuming as calling your voice mail. If the mp3s were sent as attachments directly to your email, I think it would be more useful. I used this service for a while and ended up cancelling.

They do voice to text conversion. It's not perfect, but I like the idea of getting gisted text for voice mail. As I recall they were offering it as a subscription in the UK only for now, but that was probably six months ago so it might be more widely available now.

Not only can you use it to listen to your voicemail, you can forward, archive and download saved messages, etc. I use GotVoice everytime I go into my office, where cell coverage can be spotty, or whenever I travel. Check your email and your voicemail is right there. The key differentiatior between GotVoice and other commercial systems is that it works for your cellular and home phone voicemail- and it’s free.

(I realize that the technology required to do so would be exponentially more complicated ... but at least I'd use it. The only problem - at least for myself - is that GotVoice is taking a "job that needs to be done" - listening to one's voicemail - and is making it even more complicated. Nonetheless, I acknowledge that there are many people out there who might have a need for such a service, I only wonder what percentage of the population would actually falls under this rarefied user base?)
