  Why is is necessary to have "features" to read a text message?
  Text is text - I read about 3 HOURS of text messages a day.  As
  a favorite art instructor once said, there is no need to spread
  mayonnaise on manure......

  And make the program even more bloated in the finest
  traditions of BillyWare......

  Give me a break.
