Abstract
A user terminal provides communications to and from a radiotelephone communications system. This radiotelephone communications system supports communications with the user terminal at a first power level and paging to the user terminal at a second power level greater than the first power level. In addition, a page includes an indication when voice mail has been received at the radiotelephone communications system. In particular, the user terminal includes a transceiver, a processor, and a user interface. The transceiver receives communications from the radiotelephone communications system at the first power level, transmits communications to the radiotelephone communications system, and receives pages from the radiotelephone communications system at the second power level. The processor processes the pages to determine when voice mail for the radiotelephone has been received at the radiotelephone communications system, and the user interface provides an indication to a user when voice mail for the user terminal has been received at the radiotelephone communications system. Related methods and communications systems are also discussed.
