new telephony service

intrigued by the relatively new and unknown (at least to me?) voice messaging service that Sprint calls "Voice SMS" powered by the company Core Mobility. (check out the full overview on Venture Beat)

i can actually think of a bunch of use cases for this asychronous messaging tool -- beyond of course the one of me in a car trying to type a message on my blackberry! unfortunately for society, email has i think turned the business community in to a bunch of "asynchronous" messaging addicts. think about how much time you spend just trying to keep up with email...and how much of that email is innane drivel?

sadly, the Vnotes product from Core Mobility smacks of just another way we can send a message without having to actually talk to another person. in fact, i envision a Hollywood script in my future about the business guy who only communicated with the world via email, IM and Vnotes. oh the bliss.
