    NEW YORK, Jan. 3 /PRNewswire/ -- SimulScribe, the largest U.S. provider of
voicemail-to-text services and visual voicemail applications, announced today
it is the recipient of the LAPTOP Editors' Choice Award for best voicemail-to-
text technology.  LAPTOP Magazine Editors award this honor annually to a few
select technology products, which they deem to be the best in the field.
    The LAPTOP Editors' Choice Award is only bestowed on a product after it
has been tested and evaluated based upon five criteria: design, ease of use,
features, performance, and overall value.  LAPTOP Magazine Editors awarded
SimulScribe their top choice because the service demonstrated superiority to
the competition both in terms of utility and innovation.
    "The SimulScribe team constantly strives to provide the best voicemail-to-
text experience and being named a LAPTOP Editors' Choice demonstrates that our
perseverance pays off," said James Siminoff, founder and CEO of SimulScribe.
"This award coupled with being rated as the top service by InformationWeek
continues to prove that SimulScribe is the best voicemail-to-text service in
the market."
    SimulScribe is continually recognized as the best voicemail-to-text
service for its transcription quality and that it is the only carrier agnostic
service, which works with over 95 percent of carriers in the U.S. and Canada,
including: Alltel, AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile, Verizon, Bell Canada, Rogers, Telus
and Skype.  Since launching its commercial service in January 2007,
SimulScribe has received numerous awards: two coveted Four Star Ratings from
PC Magazine, The Business 2.0 Next Net 25 Award and now LAPTOP Magazine's
Editors' Choice Award.  SimulScribe is featured on page 60 of LAPTOP
Magazine's January issue.
