Aaron from Streamline Solutions pointed out this article:

Everyone in the industry knows that text messaging, or short messaging service (SMS), has turned into one of the biggest unplanned growth engines in wireless communications. Just a few years ago, few thought the technology would take hold in the United States, as it had in other parts of the world. Now, SMS seems to be unstoppable in its usage, both in sheer messages and in the variety of ways it is used.

10/26/2005 Nextel Purchase Details

Shareholders of wireless affiliate Nextel Partners Inc. voted overwhelmingly Monday to approve a provision requiring parent company Sprint Nextel Corp. to buy the company.

10/17/2005 Missouri to Monitor Traffic Using Cell Phone Data

Driving to work, you notice the traffic beginning to slow. And because you have your cell phone on, the government senses the delay, too. A congestion alert is issued, automatically updating electronic road signs and Web sites and dispatching text messages to mobile phones and auto dashboards.

In what would be the largest project of its kind, the Missouri Department of Transportation is finalizing a contract to monitor thousands of cell phones, using their movements to map real-time traffic conditions statewide on all 5,500 miles of major roads.

It's just one of a number of initiatives to more intelligently manage traffic flow through wireless data collection.

Officials say there's no Big Brother agenda in the Missouri project — the data will remain anonymous, leaving no possibility to track specific people from their driveway to their destination.

10/11/2005 Denial of Service on Cell Phones

Cell phone networks are so vulnerable to denial-of-service-style attacks that an assault carried out by a mid-sized bot network could bring down the United States' entire mobile infrastructure, a group of academic researchers said in a paper made public Wednesday.

The paper, which will be presented by four Pennsylvania State University researchers at the ACM Conference on Computer and Communications Security in November, outlined how an attack exploiting weaknesses in SMS (Short Message Service) could overload a cell network, and bring both voice and text messaging to a screeching stop.
