早就知道有可視電話，但中國家庭的電話基本上不可視;拍下那么多照片，一直要通過網(wǎng)絡(luò)才能傳輸;發(fā)了那么多條短信，只不過訓(xùn)練了手機(jī)打字——直到彩信出現(xiàn)。

　　彩信延伸了讀圖時代的影像(其實也就是進(jìn)行了讀圖的改革)，所要做的僅僅是點播，然后等待傳送，觀看�？梢渣c播某個主持人的電視節(jié)目，點播MTV，把手機(jī)上的攝影頭(inset camera on the handset)拍的圖片即時發(fā)送出去……這已經(jīng)越來越不像是一部電話了。通訊，就這樣一步步驚艷起來�！�2002年十大驚艷》

　　It is well known that video telephone exists, but seldom were we told that somebody in China owned such a telephone in his family. We have long sent the e-photos via the Internet. We did send many short messages, but nothing but our typing was improved. All that changed when MMS came.

　　MMS revolutionized our way in enjoying pictures in that we should do nothing but take the photos, through the inset camera on the handset, of such materials as some program or MTV on television and then send them to be enjoyed by our friends. Today, the mobile phones cease to be the mere telephones. In such a way telecommunication became impressive.
