Hmm, indeed. I was comparing similar hardware being used in a somewhat similar manor. Personally, I'm terribly unfamiliar with text messaging (I'm guessing thats what SMS means). I've only encountered it in short messages. I imagine that two people equipped with hams could write down the message as they get it and not require stopping (I've got a no-code license, but I've seen people listen and write, then tap out a response -- seemingly no delay needed).
But, as mentioned above, voice is faster than text or morse code, so this is just silly.

Perhaps you forget a nice little mobile tool more commonly used for Morse Code -- the Ham Radio.
