There are 2 forms of visual voicemail that I know of.

The 1st has been mentioned. Sprint offers it on phones like the Instinct.

This version brings up several wav files that you can simply click on and listen to which voice msg you want to hear. It displays callee info and date and time as well.

The other version is offered by Altel.

It simply translates the VM that is left by the caller into text msgs and is sent right to the handset and you simply read the msg!

My friend who works for altel said that before they offered VVM, the tech's cam in and did an upgrade on their networks that took all of about 3 days to complete. then they rolled out their VVM services and packages.

I don't know why sprind won't simply do this.

Altel even offers it as add on packages to any plan you already have! They offer packages for it just like one offers different text/picturemail packages!

Get with the times Sprint!
