I would like to point out that SimulSays does have configurable tone and vibration alerts. In order to set up SimulSays to vibrate and/or play a notification tone, go into profiles, and select edit. Then scroll down to "SimulSays Message Notification". Here you can select different in and out of holster notifications including the tune, volume, number of beeps, repeat notifications such as the flashing red light, and number of vibrations. This should make it easier to know when you get a voicemail right away. Once again, thank you for the great review! Thomas Lesnick Manager of Client Services, SimulScribe Hi Robb,

I made 3-4 test voicemail calls and even when I talked very fast I found the transcriptions to be very accurate. Maybe 1-2 words total missed when I really tried to get the machine to mess up. I am going to try the 30 day trial and then evaluate it. I didn't install the client, I'm totally fine just getting an email with an attached audio file (WAV, MP3, or another format) and the transcription. I would recommend trying it too.

I've often wondered if these visual voicemail systems for the BB work, and now I have a much better idea. Thanks for the review, Robb.
