Unless you memorize all the commands, you need to listen to this menu every time you call your voicemail.
And another menu when you call your bank, And another one...
Why not let your Treo (*) handle this for you ?
With 2dial, you can define a "profile" for every number of an IVR system you call.
You can have 2dial popup automatically when the IVR answers, and show you a screen of 12 buttons. You can assign each button to a command, and pre-program it with a name, an icon, and the digit sequence needed to execute the command.
This way - all you need to do is tap the button (or select it using the 5way navigator) to play, delete, save etc.
As a side bonus, 2dial can also turn on SpeakerPhone when the call is answered.
You can also set 2dial to dial extra digits (passwords, PIN numbers etc.) when the call is answered.
Work for you - that's what your Treo should do.
And it does with 2dial.
(*) Only for Treo 600/650/700p devices.
New: Voice command activation - powered by VoiceIt!
Now you can also train 2dial to recognize a voice command you set for any button, and activate the button by speaking the command.
If you train such commands to the default profile - you can even turn 2dial into a voice-dialer / voice-launcher application (with 12 dialable/launchable entries).
To enable this, you should install on your handheld the VoiceIt libraries - a 10 days trial is included with the 2dial ZIP, so you can try it.
