CallWave Announces Wireless Industry’s First Visual Voicemail Widget

Free WEB 2.0 Visual Voicemail Widget Distributed via Yahoo! Widget Engine Allows Desktop Review of All Your Mobile Phone Voicemail

CallWave, Inc. (NASDAQ:CALL) today announced the industry’s first visual voicemail widget – a free, desktop-based application enabling users to see and hear their mobile phone voicemail messages right on their PC or Mac desktop.

“This widget demonstrates CallWave’s commitment to simple and innovative uses of the PC as a companion to the mobile phone,” said David Hofstatter, Chief Executive Officer for CallWave. “We believe Web 2.0 widgets are an explosive channel for delivering cutting edge software and services to end users. They are extremely simple to download and this one creates an innovative new way to check mobile voicemail. We are pleased to introduce the industry’s first visual voicemail widget through Yahoo! Widgets.”

CallWave’s Visual Voicemail widget provides a visual notification when new messages arrive, whether a user’s handset is nearby or not. With this widget running in the Yahoo! Widget Engine, users can view a list of callers, message lengths and when the call was received. Users can then choose which messages to listen to first. The widget is currently available on Yahoo! Widgets at http://widgets.yahoo.com/gallery/view.php?widget=41120.

Hofstatter continued, “For mobile phone users who also use the web each day, our intuitive visual voicemail widget delivers invaluable ease and efficiency – making the PC a natural companion to the mobile phone.”
