Vodafone New Zealand Text (SMS) Messaging Advert 2000

One of the very first advertisements for Text Messaging (SMS) in New Zealand. At this stage cellphones were starting to become a must have for everyone and Vodafone was the only network where Text Messaging was possible. Telecom later introduced text messaging but wasn't available on all phones and texting between networks wasn't possible.

Free text Wednesdays was a Vodafone promotion in those days.
