Texting mania in CEE
A new study (Central and Eastern Europe Mobile Messaging Services, 2004�2008 Forecast) by IDC reveals that the mobile messaging markets of Central and Eastern Europe still offer significant growth potential. Newer services like premium SMS and MMS are expected to supplement traditional text-based messaging, contributing not only to an increase in the number of users, but also to a jump in spending, which is expected to reach around $2.9 billion in 2008.
