Openwave® Video Voicemail
Openwave is changing the way consumers use their mobile phones. Instead of simply setting an outgoing voice message, callers can personalize their phones with a truly custom greeting: a video clip of you. In the near future, users will be able to choose animated and celebrity greetings for different callers. Britney Spears can tell your girlfriend you're busy; your professor gets "Bart" from the Simpsons, and have "Dirty Harry" tell your boss you can't talk right now. Openwave calls this Video Voicemail.
Create a personal outgoing video greeting. Today you can record a personal video greeting that can be seen by all callers. In the near future, create specific greetings for each person that calls you. For example, a parent can record a message for their child who is away overnight. The child can see their parent and hear the message. Choose a celebrity greeting. In the near future, users can select a celebrity like Britney Spears or the Dirty Harry character with a video voicemail of Clint Eastwood asking, "You've got to ask yourself a question—do I feel lucky?" Users can append a celebrity greeting with their own video message or have the character lip sync to whatever they are saying!Gaming enthusiasts can pick a favorite character. Within the year, gamers can select a cartoon, an avatar or characters from games like "Doom," to serve as their greeting. Users will be able to leave their message and the animation lip synchs the message.

By providing a complete personalization package of ringtones, wallpaper and greetings for their customers, operators will reduce churn and increase revenue.Roll out services fast.
