Voicemail to text services are a huge time time saver as it eliminates the need to dial-in to pick up voicemail. Instead, a transcript of the voicemail message is relayed via text so users can simply read the message wherever they are. I'm a big fan of the SimulSays service by SimulScribe, which is a BlackBerry-specific application and today it was JUST Announced it's Finally Available in Canada too (always good to see some healthy competition). You can get it for free until January 15th, 2008.
