Which is outside the box, like a 150 lb robot without the batteries or bumpers, I'm sure. Does it do the job? Yeah. Is it legal? Nah. Why? It's sending TEXT, not pictures.

If you're going to use a pic message, then I'll just use voice and have it there faster. I can read that message into the phone in less than 5 seconds, and it'll be understandable. And yes, that is still using "old" technology.
