1. Introduction
The wireless technology is the most interesting technology in the ICT industry today, where there is much innovation and research. As technology has been developed through time, advances in telecommunication and computer hardware knowledge have led to the emergence of mobile computing (Chipangura et al., 2006). Mobile computing provides instant deployment of service over a large geographical area and offers every user many services. Information Communication Technologies (ICTs) play a significant role in enhancing developing countries (Pade et al., 2006). As a convenient and low-cost mobile communication technology, Short Messaging Service (SMS) is experiencing very rapid growth. It is reported that 700 million mobile phone users worldwide sent 20 to 30 billion SMS messages every month in 2001. At the same time, SMS applications have emerged to provide mobile users consumer oriented services (Xu et al., 2002). It is also can facilitate communication and the transformation of information from business to business, business to customers, employers to employees in more added
