Damned Nuisance Callers
So I am getting 3-5 calls a day on my cell phone that are caller-id blocked. I have a strict policy that I let such calls go to voicemail. If you need to hide your identity from me when you call, you can talk to my voicemail and not me in person. Problem is, the call rate has gotten annoying and I cannot figure out how to set my phone/service to ignore caller-id blocked calls and let them go straight to voicemail.
I am using Nextel and an i580 phone.
If getting such a feature requires that I switch, I am willing to do it. Can anyone report that they have this feature now? If so - please let me know the service and the phone model so I can duplicate.
I am hoping such a feature is built into the iPhone, since I want one of those anyway - and this would be the tipping point… but I’ll consider any phone that works and ignores incoming calls where caller-id is blocked.

Folks on LiveJournal have suggested I check out YouMail.com might help.
Any company with a commercial this funny deserves further checking out:
Of course, it remains to be seen if YouMail can handle a special message for incoming calls without caller-id information.
