ABSTRACT:
A system and a service that collects information about waiting messages and forwards the collected information to a multi-service notifier device. Such a device may be wired or wireless and includes sensory indicators to convey message waiting indications from several messaging services. In accordance with one embodiment, the notifier device and the service cooperate via a wireless paging system. Each message service that a subscriber uses initiates a notification process when a message arrives. The process causes a page to be sent to the multi-service notifier device which informs the subscriber who carries the device that a message is waiting and which messaging service holds the message. In accordance with another embodiment, the notifier device is coupled to the telecommunication network over a channel that is used for other than pager communication, such as a POTS line.
