tmobile voicemail question

[Gabe]

i've got the european gsm htc hero running on tmobile usa pre-paid minutes. Is there a way I can know when I have new voicemail? on my iphone I had a dedicated voicemail button and it would have a red dot on it if I had new voicemail, I'm wondering if I could get something like this on the hero? The way it is now is I have to call the voicemail contact, and check for voicemail that way.

I also have my European Hero with USA T-mobile Prepaid, and you do get to have a visual icon to notify you when you have a voice mail waiting for you (also, you get an auditive notification as well, the same sound it makes when a new email message has arrived).

The notification appears in the form of a small icon in the notification area (the upper bar that shows the little icons whenever an event happens). The little voice-mail icon is the usual symbol you see for a recorded message ("the taping recorder"-symbol).
