Deaf hail SMS pay phones
The Herald Sun Australia writes that the expected arrival of thousands of international visitors for the Deaflympics has fast-tracked a phone revolution. "Half of Melbourne's 3600 pay phones will offer SMS by the time next Wednesday when Guy Sebastian sings at the Deaflympics opening ceremony at Olympic Park. Victoria is leading the way. Eventually all 32,000 public telephones in Australia will be text-enabled. Telstra believes Britain is the only other nation rolling out SMS pay phones." |
