How is "visual voicemail" different, exactly?
I believe this is new for any US provider and/or phone. Sounds like it's not new elsewhere, though, from what you're saying. Doesn't surprise me. US providers are behind the curve on most mobile phone innovations.
Mentioned on the Cingular page here

Oddly, despite seeing a brand spanking new Cingular is now "The New AT&T" commercial during 24 tonight, there is no mention of that on the Cingular home page yet, not even a little tiny link. Big iPhone splash on the front of the personal home page (not business home page, tho).
