AT&T wireless has once again recorded a huge increase in the volume of text messages sent during the popular show "AMERICAN IDOL" finale. The amount of SMS sent has created history. A total of 13.5 million AMERICAN IDOL text messages were sent by AT&T subscribers throughout the period. AT&T Wireless Mobile Multimedia Services is very happy that they were able to handle the multitude of messages sent during the show.

AT&T Wireless subscribers throughout the country had sent millions of text messages, fan mail, games, sweepstake entries, trivia and of course their votes. "AMERICAN IDOL" television show was ranked as the top rated show for this season and AT&T Wireless Services believes that this year’s use of text messaging has educated millions of U.S. people about text messaging.

Various records were broken according to the latest statistics by AT&T Wireless Services and these include:

  • Before the favorite program on television "AMERICAN IDOL" more than 40 percent of all participants had never sent a cell phone text message.
  • The number of cell phone text message votes sent by AT&T customers increased by 700 percent from the first voting episode.

For the last one year there have been many television shows which have included cell phone text messaging or cell phone SMS messaging into their programming and the main aim is to make phone texting as common as talking on mobile phones."

AT&T Wireless Services wants to maintain a strong focus and commitment to build its text messaging business. ATT Wireless has once again proved that creativity and challenge to improve their business has helped them to build and promote new areas of opportunity. The important thing about cell phone text messaging is that it is not only for just peer-to-peer communications it is more than that if creatively marketed.

Through innovation and quality AT&T services has lead the text messaging space and is the world leader. AT&T Wireless was the first to introduce multimedia messaging service (MMS) to the U.S and customers with compatible phones can send international text messaging to over 125 countries.
