JACKSON, Mississippi, United States-SkyTel launched a new service, SkyTel Message Center, which notifies customers when they receive a voice mail, e-mail or fax at their office or home and then provides options for responding to the message.
The service runs on the Motorola PageWriter 2000 and 2000X interactive two-way pagers, which allow users to receive and originate text messages. Using the devices, customers have options for responding to incoming messages.
The nationwide service allows customers to determine the sender of the message, the number of pages or characters, the subject and whether the message is marked urgent. Users can then choose how they want to respond to the message, including redirecting the message to an alternative e-mail address or fax machine. Users can also view text and numeric messages from a home page on the SkyTel Message Center Web site.
