voice mail services

When my phone is back on (after driving or whatever) it tells me how many
voicemail messages it has. Is there any service that would display on
screen a list of the numbers that called and left voicemails, and then
let me select among them which I want to listen to, rather than just
order-of-arrival?

This is the "Visual Voicemail" feature the iPhone has made popular.

Callwave.com offers a VVM service, that, if your phone supports push
e-mail (lik a Blackbery or Windows Mobile phone) will e-mail you your
Voicemails with the audio as an attachment so you don't even have to
call- just select and play.

Less featured phones can receive texts of the name (if available via
caler ID) and number who called with a short summary of the voicemail
in text (accuracy depends on how clearly the caller spoke, and
generally leaves much to be desired!)
