A name + position + email + company name + phone number can easily add up to > 160 characters, which is the max a text can have. Having information split up across various texts isn't too useful; makes it annoyingly irritating to read a phone number, for example.
And with this method, the person receiving the contact info either has to:
A. Have a good memory in order to remember everything to reenter. This is irritating at best and very difficult at worst. Lets say there's more then one phone number to enter? Or the person has a slightly unusual name. Or any number of factors.
B. Have a few minutes to spend flipping back and forth between the message and the contact. This is time consuming and much slower then just trading business cards.
//edit: Perhaps my original question would have been better phrased as "But what does it do better then what is currently done?"?
