Yesterday, I joined the beta programme for testing the new voicemail service that Skype may be rolling out soon. I posted comment about this service last week on my main blog.
It works just like any voicemail service. If you call someone who's also in the beta programme, you can leave them a voicemail. I have it set so that another Skype user can leave me a voicemail if I'm not online. I also have it config'd so that if someone calls me on Skype when I'm already on the phone, the new call diverts to voicemail.
In a word, it's excellent. I'll post more comment about it here as I use it more.
When will it be available? Hard to say. My guess: sometime during Q2 if the testing is successful.
