   The basic idea is that you have html templates and that you use javascript to "fill in the blanks". Here's a short primer: http://www.gethifi.com/blog/javascript-templates-and-how-we-... There are various libraries you can use to make thi

    Everyone already has email on their phone. It's free and cross-platform. The question is, why don't we all just use that? Is the interface really so much worse than SMS?
