Mark,<br><br>I love the idea! And maybe a feature like dumping the call to a BT headset device if present. I am curious, I assume there would be a config option or something, because how would it tell if you are the driver? A preference per contact could be used as well. ie. I don't mind if my family calls me while driving, but not Joe, Bob, or Steve."
<br><br>*I hate the fact that I cannot download or save my voicemail messages... I cannot with Verizon anyways. Developing a voicemail utility to save a voicemail locally when service is available but you are just ignoring calls would be quite
nice.The ability to start recording at any time during a conversation could be useful as well.<br><br>-Kyle<br><br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 7/28/07, <b class="gmail_sendername">Mark Eichin</b> <<a href="mailto:eichin-openmoko@thok.org">
