An idea for phones, voice mail systems, and touch-tone mazes

A UI suggestion for voice mail and touch-tones ...

"Forgetting how technically difficult this may be, here’s an idea…

There should be a standard to display voice mail and touch tone options on a cell phone screen. So, for example, if I call a company, and they say “Press 1 for this, Press 2 for that, Press 3 for this thing, Press 4 for that thing” it would be great if the options would appear on my phone screen like:

1. This
2. That
3. This thing
4. That thing

Then, when I press a number, the next series of menus immediately appears on the screen:

1. This
2. That
3. This thing, Etc."   continued ...   (Via Signal vs. Noise)
