Lets not beat about the bush as to what spam really is...
An spammer usually uses an unmonitored channel to advertise illegal services, or attempt to defraud people...
Frauds always been there, its just that they medium for them to catch their "saps" hasn't been so great.

Remember Video On Demand? Video Phones?
People don't want or need this technology, it will
come not take off until someones worked out the
killer app...
There's a side-justification here about getting more bandwidth for mobiles, since theres an increasing amount of dropped connections, especially in urban areas... That might be worth
it...
But the governments buttered the telecomms
companies up and shafted them on the licenses.
Its also not helping that the Network Management
software for the Base Stations was a hack job in
the first place, and needs to be rewritten
correctly to support 3G... This is another
additional cost (and potential delay).
But the subtext of 3G is so 1999-2000, where
e-commerce and the internet "will solve all our
problems." Just a packet switching wireless
network now...
