	Europeans: GET VOICEMAIL Avatar Enlargement: We've got the solution

Or at least frickin' answering machines! How hard is can it be? Aren't you considered first-world nations? Why is it no one I call in Europe--not even at major businesses--seems to have voicemail? It's the 21st century, for pete's sake!!!! I NEED TO LEAVE YOU A DAMNED MESSAGE.

AAAAAAARRRGGGggggggghhh!

Thanks.

Unless that's voicemail or some kind of intercontinental ballistic missile, I'm not interested in it.

Text messaging is for dorks who don't have voice mail. Why bother typing in a message on a tiny keypad when I can just say it in half the time?

I need to leave a rather detailed message, which is a real pain on a mobile phone. Voicemail really would be easiest.

I don't understand these backwards folks...you'd think it was the 1960s!

Now if these ludite Euros were really into the 21st century then they would have one voice mail box which they accessed via their mobile, home, or office phones like we Californians do.

Call forwarding is another nice feature we have. You call one number and the persons mobile, office, and home number ring so you don't have to bother tracking the call ditching bastard down.

We do some work with some Germans, they all have cell phones... Also, if there is to be a detailed conversation I usually just tell them to call me when they get back in the office, to which they ussually tell me at what time that would be.


Or, you could deliver the message the old fashion way; by mail

Heck, maybe airmail, strapped to a bomb, that is dropped offer its destination would be quicker.

Anyway, I think most people have voicemail on their mobiles..
But not at home. I really don't know why

Because at home people have answering machines

I thought that was the same thing.
I mean, you receive voicemails on your answering machine?

Is that why Europe is constantly two years or more ahead of the USA when it comes to mobile communications?

I'm seriously considering getting a 3-phone. The video call stuff is sweet and the ability to download pictures and movies off of the Net to the mobile is kick arse.

Not having voice mail is our form of protesting against the establishment.

I've had a voice mailbox attached to my mobile somewhere in the 90s, as well as the built-in digital answering machine of my stationary phone enabled. I disabled both, when they got annoying. When I'm away, I'm away, live with it.

I have voice mail on my cell... that's it. I might get an answering machine just so it will pick up after 4 rings when someone who I don't want to talk to is calling my home.

I'm a bad message person. Usually I get frazzled and leave something stupid.

I love my answering machine. I use it to screen all my calls.
