Barb, and everyone, the part of the voice mail in the prepaid verizon phones
where you could press 2 in voice mail to make a message to another verizon
customer. I don't know exactly when that was eliminated from the voice mail
but I noticed it gone in november. I't's not anything I absolutely need or
would use all the time. Mostly I used it with 2 friends, which besides phone
calls we used that method of messaging to keep in touch. I just thought I
would mention it since it wasn't always that way.
