The biggest problem I have with my mobile voice mail (Cingular), is the inability to delete the message until the recording has finished. You are forced to listen to the whole thing first. It's a waste of time. If it was delivered as text, it could make the whole process easier. The question though: will the recording still be on the phone even after the text message is delivered or deleted? If it is, then it would be a huge pain in the rump to still have to listen to the message before deleting. Will definately have to try these.

Being able to see transcribed voicemails while in meetings and on the run in airports is a rather useful feature. I'd recommend either service to anyone who attends lots of meetings or travels a lot.
