One of the exciting features of the iPhone is the visual voicemail. I don't own an iPhone so I can't comment, however Vonage has just launched their own version of visual voicemail. Today I received my first voicemail which was transcribed using their program. Is this really the best they can do? This voicemail comes from a family friend who speaks perfect clear, crisp English.
First the version from Vonage Visual Voicemail:
"Hey. Elements bonds a chair and it's Oh new time on wednesday. I have been. Think work for both calling or writing but i don't. What you think it's because i don't they took get off and. i hear the new name in your greeting night. Hope that means that. Something that should doing is clicking well 4 I was. Real excited for your browser presentation in philadelphia nope that's still going well. What should drop me a note. By email or do me a call at Test over to reach me on now. By the way is and you can use just forever. Is (removed but wrong). For through. 16 that's 1 of those grand central City the rings or my office of my home on my mobile all at the same time. Switch it back and forth fifth. It's grand central as far as in boy that's a real certain support services so it's not something you've already spoken to. Anyway talk to you soon hope or get an email and This. Make sure we stay in touch. Bye bye."
Can you figure it out? Here is the actual voicemail transcribed by me:
"Hey Allen, It's Bob, its about noontime on Wednesday. I have been neglectful in calling or writing but I don't want you to think it's not because I am thinking of you often. I hear a new name in your greeting and I hope that means that something you are doing is clicking well for you. I am excited to hear about your presentation in Philadelphia Why don't you drop me a note by email or give me a call at - the best number to reach me at - (ph removed) it's one of those grandcentral numbers which rings on my home, the office and the cell at the same time. GrandCentral is part of Google and it's a really super service worth looking into if you haven't already. Anyway talk to you soon I hope or get an email and let's stay in touch. Bye Bye."
So you iPhone'rs, please report in if the VV function is more accurate on the iPhone. Clearly the Vonage version isn't ready for prime time.
