In the interest of anonymity and safety, callers do not see users’ actual cell phone numbers, and certain callers may be blocked. The obvious beneficial application of such a technology would be related to safety – drivers could report a brake light out, turn signal stuck blinking or tire going flat.

Are you finding your cell phone ringing off the hook, just when you can't or don't want to answer it? CallWave has an alternative: Vtxt. The service is based on voice recognition and converts and summarizes your voicemail messages. These are then sent as 140-character SMS text or email messages. The SMS messages can of course be viewed on your phone, if it's so enabled. This makes it easy to see which ones need a response now.

RE: reverse cell phone lookup paid service. YES Ive done it and it works. They release the info that was given to the carrier. Keep in mind this may be the name and billing address of mommy, sugar daddy, or one of the pushovers you see on texas justice or judge judy everyday. And if its prepaid, they likely have no personal info. They will still charge you for providing you with the information that no information is available for the number!

Several federal judges around the country have decided the tax should not apply to cell phones, but the issue is still before appeals courts, with the federal appeals bench in New York City due to hear arguments in the case March 22.
