Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I just switched to Sprint from Verizon about three months ago for the Pre. Then I went for the Hero about a week ago. Now, I miss my hardware keyboard and am thinking about switching to the Moment. I am still able to switch back to Verizon if I want and get the Droid when it arrives. Should I just trade up to the Moment when it comes out, see if I like it, and if not switch to the Droid? Or something else entirely? Help!"
Well, "3" Austria has sent all my voicemails to my handset via eMail for 2.5 years now. For free too if I may add...
Yeah we are so behind here in the US in mobile telecommunications. Even in 3rd world countries the network will message you if you missed a call due to being out of range but not here.
Anyhow I found a free service that takes my voice messages and E-mails them to me as an attachment while also texting me a computer voice to text interpretation. I would prefer an MMS though.
Now don't go saying that's because being out of range happens all the time in 3rd world countries. Believe it or not most have better urban coverage than the US. It will text you if your phone was off as well.
On cingular someone tried to call me 5 times and never did the phone ring. They didn't leave a message and the only way I knew that someone had even called me was due to my service that e-mailed me. Finally after 2 hours I got 5 text messages also (from the service).
