Verizon Offering Visual Voicemail - For $2.99/mo. - That Bites!

Looks like Verizon is finally going to offer visual voice mail, but the S.O.B.'s are going to charge $2.99/mo. extra for it.

This is in stark contrast to the visual voice mail offerings on Sprint's Samsung Instinct and AT&T's Apple iPhone, both who offer the feature with no extra charge.

Yeah ... that Verizon is beginning to worry me. With certain discounts they definitely offer more bang for the buck - particularly with the free in-network calling, but the more I check them out, the more hesitant I am to go their direction.
