Hi!
I am not sure if this is the right place, but if not please forgive me and move the thread..

I have a Nokia N73 PAYG with Orange. I don't really spend a lot, I basically send one text a day, maybe one call a week, and I do spend quite a few pounds on the internet browser ... although I buy the World 1 voucher, so I have unlimited browsing for a day for a pound, or a whole week for 5 pounds. I think I spend around 15 pounds a month (the most) in total.

I think that the Orange answermachine is too expensive. I have been thinking about buying one of those softwares that work as answering machines on your mobile, so it answers the call and records the message. This way you can "play" it at any time without involving any cost on your side.

Has any of you tried them? Are they good? Could you recommend one?
any advice would be highly appreciated!!

    Thank you!
    I have downloaded a trial of this software (14 days trial), it seems quite easy to use.
    I had problems at the beginning, but I discovered that I had to record a default greeting in order to work.
    If I see that it is useful during the next two weeks, I might pay the fee. I have seen it cheaper in other sites, so in the long run I will save money, because I am spending almost a pound every time I check the voicemail with Orange, because they make me go through the whole options in order to appear as "messages read".
    Thank you again, very useful.
