SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PUSHING MULTIMEDIA MESSAGES TO A COMMUNICATION DEVICE

摘要

The present invention is directed to a system and method in which voicemail or other media messages together with their text transcriptions are sent as digital messages to the user's phone. In one embodiment, voicemail message is recorded remotely from a user's mobile device. The voicemail message is converted to both a text version and a digitized version. Both versions are then communicated to the user's device via a messaging channel. The user then can selectively retrieve either the text version for visual display or the digitized version for audible presentation. If desired, the user can retrieve both versions concurrently.
