Voicemail

Just received my D2 and it is pretty awesome. I have set up the voicemail in call settings with pauses and passcode. If I use it from the speed dial it will put the passcode in for me but if I use the App from home screen it does not put it in and I have to manually enter the passcode. Am I missing something? Thanks for any inutput.

Just a suggestion: sign up for Google Voice and use their voicemail in place of Verizon's. Then your voicemails will be sent to the Google Voice app on your phone and you won't need to dial into your voicemail system to access it. On top of that it will transcribe your voicemail messages for you and present the trasncript within Google voice, and you can also access the messages from any internet-connected PC. Oh yeah, you can also define different groups that get different voicemail greetings so you can have a default greeting for normal callers, then special greetings for friends, family, your significant other, etc.
