New Rogers Service Converts Voicemail To Text

by Robb Dunewood on December 13, 2007 · 3 comments

Rogers Wireless customers have a new service available to them from Spinvox, that will convert their voicemail messages to text.

We have all probably been in situations where we know that we have a voice mail, but, just aren’t in a situation where you can listen to it but if we could read it, it would put our wondering minds at ease. I could also see voicemail to text being a big hit with business travelers not that airlines are starting to dabble with in-flight email access.

Voicemail to text powered by Spinvox will set you back $15 per month in addition to your normal wireless bill. The service seems kind of ready made for BlackBerry users but works on all Rogers handsets with voicemail.

Rogers is offering a free 30-day trial so, to our RIMarkable reading neighbors up North, give it the once over and come back and tell us what you think in the comments.

Now this is a great idea. This should be offered by all carriers; they would make a ton of money for this service; plus, it kind of tops the iPhone visual voicemail feature, if it works well. If RIM were smart, they would try to get this feature incorporated by all of their carriers for BB users as a default feature.

I think it’s great idea for the deaf people who read text voicemail. That would be be great benefits.

I don’t know if it’s just my browser but I noticed the other comments including mine and Jacky C’s response have been deleted. Anyways, I just wanted to reply to Jacky C.. I wasn’t offended by your comment; I was just giving a heads up because I know how certain words can come off when written in text and be taken out of context. No worries though man.
