Hi Scott. As you and David have said, it is a carrier problem. I would like to add that it doesn't have anything to do with visual voicemail. I don't know about New Zealand, but here in Canada, visual voicemail doesn't come standard. At least for Bell and Telus anyway, don't know about Rogers.

I've been looking into the Orbit Reader. The main things to keep in mind are that it's bulky, and it lacks cursor keys. Neither of these is a deal breaker, especially for the price, but people should keep them in mind. According to its webpage, it's a good deal larger than Refreshabraille,
