Mail and Guardian Online: The new, verbal SMS is here: "A new, verbal way to send messages via the GSM network that does not require users to type in a SMS is here, Swedish-based telecommunications giant Ericsson has announced. And, like current text-based SMSs, it costs less than a cellphone call.

'Even with all the communications choices we have, there are often times when a quick message has to be sent and a fast response is required without the sender having to go through the hassle of writing an SMS or having a drawn-out conversation,' said Ericsson SA mobile systems manager Hendrik Bredenkamp."
