I had to return the droid because of the wav file support. Our vm system utilizes wav in email. Also just small things. Such a great phone and close to really giving iPhone a run. But just not yet.
ummmm...
*cough Cough*
I'm pretty sure you could of juse got a Google Voice account, and then used the google visual voicemail...
which btw i believe you can save, and send and receive those sound files around.

Are there no apps on the market place that will play a .wav file?
Not at this time. Also why would I want to save it then go and play it in another app when even the bb with their archiac is can do it.
What device have you come from?
I notice you have a number of posts under your belt (29 at the time of writing this post) - so did you ask about wav support? It seems as though it would have been my number one question.
really? just not there yet huh? because of .wav support? A GLARING OVERSIGHT. gtfo
Yeah, this is a glaring oversight. People like me and the OP who use our phones for business need wav support. It's a simple feature that has been standard on smart phones for years. It never occurred to me that the Droid wouldn't support WAVs.
Would you be surprised if you opened the browser only to discover that it doesn't display JPGs? I think you would, and for good reason. This is basically the same thing.
So no one else should need to?Not really. No offense, but I haven't played a .wav file...in about 6 years.
It's a minor over sight, that will be corrected shortly. Not something worthy of turning this gem in for.

Lol really, .WAV files people are complaining about? Have you ever heard of calling your voicemail to listen to them? If the lack of a .wav file is keeping you from a DROID then you should go back to windows mobile.

You're funny. "lol"
There are some of us, often called adults, who use their phones for work and don't want to be hassled by things getting in the way of work. Many of us have voicemail that is integrated with our email. Perhaps you've heard of that before. Those voicemails are attached to emails in WAV format. If we can't listen to our voicemails in the way that we're used to, or if we have to jump through a lot of hoops to hear them, then this phone is actually getting in the way, not helping.
Maybe that's not a big deal once in a while, but for people who regularly get emails with WAV attachments, this could be really annoying. But maybe we're just not as l33t as you.
History shows us that early iPhone users were ticked off about this. Palm Pre users are ticked off about it. This was an easily foreseeable problem with a simple solution. They really should have had this working already.
