Between midnight on 31 December and midnight on 1 January, 133m text messages were sent in the UK. It is the highest ever daily total recorded by the Mobile Data Association (MDA). It represents an increase of 20% on last year's figures."</i><br /><br />My New Years eve was pretty quite event, but even so, I can tell you I was in no shape to send a SMS at midnight. If I did try, I'm sure it would have been impossible to read. :wink:
