This one is in beta, but has anyone tried out this service? It says it works with Windows Mobile phones, and it is free.

I might give it a try when I have a chance.

It works alright, very smooth but the sound quality was absolutely terrible for me. It was really easy to set up, too. This, Hemli's Rom, full youtube and the finger flick contacts all stomp on the iPhone.

So it uses call forwarding? How exactly does it work?

You set up our call forwarding so it forwards all your unanswered calls to one of their numbers. This is just an alternate voicemail service. However, they also put the message on a server and your phone polls the server and downloads you messages at whatever time interval you want. Greater interval= Less battery drain, but longer wait. Vice Versa.
To check messages, just open the simulsays program and it lists all the messages you've gotten.

I hope they don't dictate the voicemail themselves.
