Announcing Speed Dial Selection
drdigital1:
Is there a way to hear the name I assigned to a speed dial number when I dial it (number#)? Skype "goto" number has such a feature which is useful when you use speed dial based on own's memory.
Thanks,

Have you tried dialing *75 followed by the speed dial number (1-99)?
RonR:
Unless I've missed something, the OBi doesn't associate a name with a Speed Dial number. The OBiTALK configuration facility may, but I don't find any such field in the OBi itself. Consequently, the OBi isn't aware of a name and can't play it back to you.

Thanks for the 2 comments.
*75. Based on the name i.e.” Speed Dial Read-Back”, I also thought that this would do it but it does not read it when you dial. What it does is that it reads the name but it does NOT dial the number. It's good to remind you what the speed dial is, in case you're not sure. Then, you can dial it, I guess. This is a lot of button-pressing. Skype tells you the name and if you didn't remember correctly you can hang up.
When you set up Speed Dial in ObiTALK portal you can assign names. When a message is left on voice mail from one of these speed dials, you hear “message from ASSIGNED NAME” so I thought/hoped that there might be a way…
RonR:
Are you sure this “message from ASSIGNED NAME” isn't coming from your own answering machine and a contact list it maintains? Again, I may have missed a feature somewhere, but I'm not aware of any voicemail services provided by the OBi, OBiTALK, or Obihai.
