The system in the US is not really set up to foster SMS usage (many have to pay to *recieve* a message). A small country like Denmark send many times the SMS'es of the USA. A story from late 2004 mentions that the average American user sends 13 messages per year, the average Danish user sends 66 messages per *month* (I'm at approx. 20 messages per month). In the first 6 months of 2005 there were almost 4 *billion* text messages sent in Denmark (pop. less than New York City). Totally different phone cultures. - Andreas -- <URL:http://www.solitude.dk/> Commentary on media, communication, culture and technology. ------------------------ Yahoo!
