Visual voicemail firm HulloMail has released its iPhone application. The app sees the debut of a free, two-way messaging capability that enables users to send quick voice messages known as Hullos, to friends, family and co-workers domestically or overseas without them having to place a live call or incur a long-distance charge. 
Using Hullos, HulloMail users can converse using voice messages and reply to their voicemails, enjoying a free back and forth verbal messaging conversation, even overseas, without incurring a call charge.
The company says that Hullos work most effectively for HulloMail service subscribers and in concert with those SmartPhones for which the HulloMail app is designed. Though this is currently just the iPhone, Android and Blackberry versions will be released soon.
HulloMail subscribers will be able to quickly play a received Hullo message as it will immediately pop up in their mobile app, but anyone, including non-subscribers, can experience the personal touch of receiving a Hullo message if the sender knows the recipients email address. 
In addition to the Hullo feature, the app also provides iPhone users with a menu of voice communication tools, including a centralized view and simplified management of their voicemails, missed calls, and voice message synchronization with email compliant accounts, including MobileMe and Gmail.
The iPhone is the ultimate Smartphone communications device, says HulloMail CEO  Andy Munarriz. HulloMail is the most advanced voice messaging complement to that technology on the market today. With the incorporation of Hullos, our iPhone app takes visual voicemail to an entirely new level, delivering a powerful new twist on the voice messaging experience that will change the way wireless users think of and utilize voice communication. First, there was traditional voicemail, then texting, then tweeting, now, there are Hullos, which we believe will become a new standard technology for the global mobile marketplace.”
