Lucent cleverly introduced Partner Voice Messaging PC Card in 1997,
allowing Endeavor and ACS installations to add inexpensive voice mail
without consuming slots in a carrier. By using flash memory and PC Card
technology, the entire voice mail system plugs into the expansion PC Card
slot on the Partner processor.
At low cost, the PVM PC card is necessarily limited in capacity and function.
These cards support only 2 ports, and 4 or 12 mailboxes, 40 or 120 minutes
of total storage.

Compared to Partner Mail VS, the PVM PC card has some functional
limitations. There is only one Auto Attendant. Only a single language is
supported. Backups cannot be made. Outcalling cannot be cascaded. There is
no separate day vs. night menu. Users cannot forward voice messages to
another user. There is no Record-a-Call. But, users can rewind or fast-
forward message playback.
Reliability should be good for this card since there is no disk drive.
