- lxgr 2y agoI remember Palm OS being able to send and receive binary attachments via SMS (over Infrared or Bluetooth and an attached phone, I think). Not MMS, actually data SMS! As far as I remember, a full screen JPEG (320x320 pixel) would have been thousands of messages according to the UI. Having a phone plan where each text was dozens of cents, that UI scared me a lot.
