November 29, 2003it's just cultural...Jill has a great entry on how Europeans don't understand why Americans don't text. The technology is there, so what's the problem? [The comments on this one are fantastic!] Category: Posted by zephoria at November 29, 2003 7:43 PM

I would argue (and did on Jill's blog) that the technology is actually *not* quite there, despite the popular assurances by some of the biggest wireless service providers.

I think it is more than cultural...for me it was three reasons as I commented on the post.
1. Non-intuitive interface for my US brain.
2. Non-competitive pricing. Should be included with with my zillion minutes plan I already buy.
3. Lack of practice. I can type here soooo much faster than text. Unless it's short messages like "I love you" to my SO.
