Hi,
I am translating the voice files of voicemail now. I don't know if the POUND and # are the same key in the telephone's keypad.
They are the same key. I'm not sure how the # came to be associated with the word "pound", but in American English at least, they're the same key.
The technical term for the # key (in the telephone world, at least) is an "octothorpe". This comes from the fact that there's eight (octo) pointy things (thorpe).
The two frequencies (usually) mixed for the # are 941 and 1477Hz.
If they are same, how could we understand the following message:
%vm-msginstruct.gsm%To hear the next message press 6, to repeat this message press 5, to hear the previous message press 4, to delete or undelete this message press seven, to quite voicemail press pound. During message playback, you may press * to rewind, and # to fast forward.
The "quite" in the first # example should be "quit"; the correct concept would probably be exit, log out of, etc.
The # in the second example is only used if a message is playing.
I may not be fully comprehending what you're asking... if this doesn't answer your questions, perhaps rephrase it and I'll try to help. -rt
