Mobile services coming to fixed line
Ringtones, SMS, centrex/switchboard etc are mentioned.
Most DECT/wireless phones already are enabled for SMS, but few operators support it for some reason. Odd as it would increase ARPU (read: increase profits).
It probably takes an Indian (and hangup-free) operator to do this. Especially European operators show a clear lack of creativity and interest to experiment with new services, which hits back on themselves.
Fixed lines'll dance to ringtones, SMS- The Economic Times
