    You've got to forget all the acronyms... GPRS is just an enabler. With WAP, and decent security, and digital rights management, I could, say, have a service to subscribe to get messages for all the goals my football team makes. I could get an MMS with a picture or a video clip sent to me.

    Forget all the acronyms? I can't even extricate the meaning of this paragraph through them.

    Oh great, now I can be in the middle of a meeting with clients when my Tamagotchi will phone me and let me know it's hungry and wants food.
