[ORANGE] MMS-to-snailmail gateway...

[Mark Hudson]

Got this through from travelocity this morning which was mildly 
interesting...

About to go on a trip? Always forgetting to send postcards to your
nearest and dearest? Now you can turn any photo taken on your phone
into a real postcard. And send it to someone's home from your phone.
To anyone in the world. Not an electronic postcard. The recipient
receives a real, hold-in-your-hand card with the picture you chose on
the front, sent by us in the post (first-class).

How do you create and send a postcard in the post, all from your
mobile? Follow five easy steps:

    1  Go on a trip

    2  Take photos with your phone camera

    3  Create a picture/ multimedia message with your favourite (sic), 
add a greeting, and send via MMS (not email) to postcards at travelocity.co.uk

    4  Reply to the text message we send you, telling us the recipient's 
name and address (separated with commas)

    5  The recipient receives a unique, highly personal postcard in the 
first-class post
