And ring tones became killer app for 2003 in revenue(value added services). Now Korea introduced ring-back tones and it became hit in korea and every body is trying to follow the suit hoping it will become killer app for 2005.

Verizon & T-Mobile are introducing in US. Don't know if it is already introduced in India.
