What is claimed is: 1. A customer premises equipment (CPE) used in conjunction with a public switched telephone network visual voice messaging system, said CPE comprising: a display screen; a plurality of soft key buttons associated with said display screen; a plurality of function labels associated with the soft keys; a DTMF keypad; and message identification and message status displayed on said display screen, said message identification obtained via the public switched telephone network wherein said function labels are determined as a function of the message status.
4. In a public switched telephone network having caller identification, a system for interfacing between a subscriber and a Visual Voice Messaging System (VVMS), said system comprising: a public switched telephone network (PSTN); operatively coupled to said PSTN, a VVMS for accepting and storing one or more messages and determining a message status associated with each message, said VVMS comprising a screen phone including a display screen, soft keys adjacent said display screen, one or more hard keys operatively associated with said display screen, a DTMF keypad, and function labels associated with said soft keys wherein said labels are determined as a function of the message status; operatively coupled to said PSTN; a caller identification system for providing message identification associated with each message; wherein said message identification and said message status associated with a single message are displayed on said display screen.
5. A system according to claim 4 wherein said message status includes: an indication whether said message is "new", "heard", or "saved".
11. A system according to claim 4 wherein said hard keys include: a key to allow the user to view the message identification and message status associated with a previous message; and a key to allow the user to view the message identification and message status associated with a subsequent message.
12. A system according to claim 4 wherein said soft keys include: a key to allow a user to view the message identification and message status associated with a previous message; and a key to allow a user to view the message identification and message status associated with a subsequent message.
14. In a public switched telephone network comprising caller identification and a Visual Voice Messaging System (VVMS), said VVMS comprising a screen phone including a display screen, soft keys adjacent said display screen, and a DTMF keypad, a method for interfacing between a subscriber and said VVMS, the method comprising the steps of: receiving one or more messages to the subscriber via the public switched telephone network (PSTN); determining, via the PSTN caller identification, message identification associated with each message; determining a message status associated with each message; displaying function labels associated with said soft keys on the display screen wherein the function labels are determined as a function of said message status: having the subscriber interact with the VVMS via said soft keys; and displaying said message identification and said message status associated with a single message on said display screen.
15. A method according to claim 14 further comprising the steps of: playing back a message; and providing the capability to erase or save said message prior to the completion of said message playback.
