GotVoice.com - Get the message

Do you hate wasting time by calling in to get your voicemails and having to listen to the machine lady? If so, you've got to get GotVoice. GotVoice converts all forms of voice messages into texts that can be sent to your cell or email as text or an MP3 attachment. The benefits are that messages can be skimmed for important information or skipped, you can decide which contacts get transcribed and sent and you can save and forward all messages. The service also includes broadcast messaging, silent delivery and works with home, office and mobile phones. GotVoice has three services to choose from, including: GotVoice free, GotVoice Premium and GotVoice Business. The services vary in terms of price, the frequency with which the messages are checked, RSS feed allowance, manual retrieval limits and other special features. There is a 14-day free trial available and registering only requires a phone number, voicemail type, voicemail pin code and an email address. It seems that busy parents and all people in the workforce could benefit from this service and feel more organized and in touch. And now, the best new feature is dancing avatars that convey the message along with the text. Add a chuckle to your gray day with a dancing bear and a side of text messages.

GotVoice does not alienate consumers of lower economic status like many tech products do. The service is either free or reasonably priced and offers a new convenience.

Is the cost higher to forward a message that has been transcribed? Does it depend on the mobile service?
