Link: Dragon fires up cheap texts - Sunday Times - Times Online.
DOUG RICHARD, the American software entrepreneur best known from the Dragons’ Den TV programme, is aiming to take a big bite out of the profits mobile-phone companies make from text messaging with the launch tomorrow of Hotxt.
He plans to undercut the main network operators by offering unlimited messages for £1 a week. Many mobile users, particularly younger ones, spend far more than this on their SMS text habits. Text messaging is an important source of profits for mobile-phone companies.
it’s not a new concept — there’s Juize and Crickee that I’ve come across in recent months. However, Hotxt are the first that I’ve seen hit the mainstream press.
I’ll download it and give it a go.
