«VisualTXT»

Snosnoopy.jpg Germany based ConVisual announced a 2nd generation visual messaging service called 'VisualTXT', according to Smart Mobs.

This service converts regular SMS text into multimedia messages with matching pictures, photos and sounds and bridges the gap between Smart Messaging-capable phones and MMS-capable phones.

How it works : "Type a text message and add the recipient's phone number, send it to a short code and the recipient will receive an animation with sound, together with the text message on his MMS mobile. If the user, for example, inserts 'I love you 01721234567' the recipient will receive a colour animation with a relevant 'love-oriented' soundtrack".

End users with Smart Messaging-capable devices will receive the graphics as a black and white still picture message.
