    Seems kind of low to me.  Spamming imode phones has been a major
problem all over Japan.  Should have fined them 6.5 million dollars to
make a point that spamming mobile phones is not good.

    Of course I mean large scale phone spamming, on the other hand
email spam has some legitimate uses once in awhile, but it is almost always abused
rather than used, which is very sad.
