HD Radio technology is the new, hot thing in sound. That's because it will do for radio what HDTV has done for TV ? make it light years better. In fact, when you listen to HD AM radio, you'll think you're listening to FM. And HD FM radio sounds as clear and pure as if you were listening to a CD. Plus all this sound comes via the airways and i completely free!
Is that your radio displaying a text message?
Thanks to HD Radio technology, radio stations will able to also transmit additional information in the form of text messages.
Typically, this will appear as scrolling text on your radio's display. This information might consist of the song's artist and title, the station's call letters and maybe advertising information.
Yes, the additional information sent to your digital radio will most likely include ads. After all, advertising pays for those free radio AM and FM broadcasts.
These ads might consist of messages such as ?this traffic report brought to you by Arnie's Automotive.? Besides, all TV stations and even satellite radio have ads.
On the plus side, the text broadcast with a news show might be financial updates, stock ticker information or business news. And stations might also use text to provide helpful information such as weather updates and traffic alerts.
Just imagine. There you are in your car listening to an oldies favorite and suddenly, your radio tells you to expect bad weather in the next few hours. Is that amazing or what?

Sending A Text Message
Estepona, 30. October 2006
TerraSip, a VoIP provider based in Southern Spain (?Europe's California?) is offering a new service for direct customers and resellers with immediate effect.
Every registered customer can send text messages of up to 160 characters each from the TerraSip website. The handling is easy and the costs extremely low. The customer selects the texting web page on www.terrasip.com and enters a target cellphone number in the field provided. The text message is typed into the next field, after which it is dispatched using the ?Send text message? button. That's all there is to it. A special data field informs the customer of his prepaid credit. All text messages sent are recorded in a personal message register which the customer can inspect at any time.
Bulk text messaging for 4.9 eurocents:
Bulk text messages can be sent for the same price as individual messages. In this case the sender selects the appropriate dispatch mode and simply enters all target numbers using copy and paste into the target number field. The numbers should be separated by commas. Then the message is entered and the bulk message can be submitted.
For the most part TerraSip uses internet connections to implement the new texting service (similar to Voice over IP transmissions), disseminating the messages to target networks via so-called gateways.
No basic charge, no minimum usage:
As is the case with all of TerraSip's services: There are no hidden charges. The user can be sure that no other costs than the 4.9 eurocents per message will be charged. These charges are debited from the customer's prepaid account.
TerraSip TEXTing soon to be made available via WAP:
TerraSip's development engineers are currently creating an innovative software package which will allow the new TEXTing service to be used from WAP compliant GSM cellphones ? so customers need not use their PCs or seek out an internet caf?. They can use their own cellphones to send text messages throughout the world for the extremely reasonable price of 4.9 eurocents per message. The new software, which will also allow for low-priced mobile VoIP telephony, is projected to be available before the end of the year.
