> SMS use is rarer than hen's teeth in Japan for several good reasons: Vodafone 3G in Japan has SMS & MMS (which I guess does make it "rarer than hen's teeth", given V's determined attempts to kill itself in the Japanese market). I guess it's not promoted as that, but that's what the backbone is and now it's indicated on the phone, too. I think one big difference is that SMS in Europe includes the ability to charge people for a service.Received on Tue Nov 29 04:34:12 2005
