New features include picture messaging and a white backlight.
Picture messaging is supported by almost all phones and is generally the delivery method of choice.
For those who do not have an unlimited picture messaging plan, there is a small fee for the upload, but it's considerably less than purchasing a ringtone.
Better communication devices such as mobile phones outfitted with text and picture messaging capabilities mean that there is less need to interact face-to-face in order to talk to one another.
