Skipping Text; Going Straight to Multimedia Messaging

Steve Outing in E-Media Tidbits reports on an article in The Financial Times, about how the U.S. is so far behind Europe on adopting cell-phone text messaging that it may never catch on in a big way, as it's done in the last couple years in other parts of the world.

While acknowledging that Americans are belatedly making "texting" use popular at last, the writers predict that the U.S. market will likely move quickly to multimedia messaging. Picture messaging is likely to be the next big thing before texting has a chance to take off.
