Abstract
A method and system for providing an originating dispatch user with delivery options when a destination dispatch user is not available are provided. These options can include delivering buffered voice to a voice mail system, and converting the buffered voice to text and sending the text as an electronic mail, a short message service (SMS) message, or an instant message. The speech can be buffered in either the network or in the originating communication device. The speech can be buffered either before or after receiving a call setup acknowledgment from the dispatch network.
