But we can always find just a little dead time while traveling to check our telephone for messages.

Some people need immediate alerts. There job demands that they are often contacted at all times. Information Technology (IT) individuals are ideal example. If a company's web site goes down for lengthy time period, the CEO won't be pleased if the IT supervisor says, "Sorry, I was out to lunch."

Others have the misfortune of having to deal with and talk with high-tech show-offs like myself. For these unfortunate people, who don't always have the exact same type of enthusiasm for 21st century technologies "email to telephone" can be one avenue that will permit them to join the modern world.
