AT&T Voicemail Shows No Windows Mobile Love

Whether you like visual voicemail or not really isn't a question as you can always just hit and hold the 1 button on your handset to get to the traditional monotonous "You have XX messages" greeting and be prompted for a password. The issue here is that the iPhone had it and now The Boy Genius Report is stating that the service is showing up in AT&T's OnLine Account Management (OLAM) system for CrackBerry users. You still can't add it officially yet, but Research in Motion's BlackBerry handhelds will be sporting the time-saving--and airtime saving for that matter--feature soon if things pan out.

I think it's a great feature and it'd be even more awesome if the carrier supported the "other" major smartphone platform--e.g. Windows Mobile. For now, I've been using CallWave, which we had previously reviewed. CallWave can email your voicemails to you so you have it as a file and can listen to individual voicemails by name or number rather than having to go through the entire list of messages stored in the system.
