How often have you had to listen to four or five (or more) voicemail messages before getting to the message you really want, or need, to hear? The iPhone's clever visual voicemail presents a list of your voicemail messages in the order in which calls were received. But you need not listen to those messages in order.
How do you even know you have voicemail? There are a few ways:
A red circle showing the number of pending messages awaiting your attention appears above the Phone icon on the Home screen or above the Phone icon on the Home screen or above the Voicemail icon from within hte Phone application
You may also see a message on the iPhone display that says something like, "New voicemail form Ed (or Bob)."
Whatever draws you in, tap that Voicemail icon to display the list of voicemails. You see the caller's phone number, assuming this info is known through CallerID, and in some cases, his or her name. Or you see the word Unknown.
The beauty of all this, of course, is that you can ignore (or at least put off listening to) certain messages. We are not in the adivce-giving business on what calls you can safely avoid; if you disregard messages from the IRS or your parole officer, it's at your own risk, okey?
