If you’ve not come across Visual Voicemail before this allows the user to see a visual representation of their voicemail box and sorted in order so need to dial 171 to check. This feature for example is available on the iPhone. But alas it’s not available in Ireland.

If you’re luck to own a Google Android T-Mobile G1 the good news is that PhoneFusion now has an enabled Visual Voicemail app for Android OS that will of course work with your G1.

Now, thanks to the creative developers at PhoneFusion, the Android platform and the T-Mobile G1 can now proudly say that they have Visual Voicemail capability. PhoneFusion will debut their Visual Voicemail application before the end of 2008, bringing Android users “the ability to centralize all of their voicemail boxes and see – right on the screen of their Android-powered mobile device – a list of their voicemail messages.”

The service will also allow users to listen to their voicemails directly from their smartphone. PhoneFusion expects that
Fusion Voicemail Plus will be available on Android Market by the end of Q4.
