This year mobile spam messages are predicted to rise to about 1.5 million, which seems like a large number, but in reality it's small compared to the 250 million Americans who use cell phones. Security experts fear that phone spam will grow in the future. Unfortunately, this problem will impact consumers' pocketbooks. The more text and voice spam are invading handsets. Wireless users in the U.S. will receive about 1.1 million spam text messages this year, up 38% from 2006, estimates messaging specialist Ferris research.

Well, all this spam stuff is pretty interesting, but I probably text more than any person alive. I guess I'm one of the 248.5 million people who didnt get one. I think all these technology problems are overated. I hear more people say that when all the computers fail it's gonna be the end of the world... yeah right, maybe for nerds, but not for the common people. I'm really tired of people making a big deal over cellphones and computers. They are just accessories.......
