In Norway the mobile customers sent 82 per month. 68 were interpersonal messages, 13 had to do with various services (ring sounds etc) and 1 MMS. While throwing all these statistics around make sure that the comparisons are correct.

In the first six months of 2004, the 5.4 million Danes have sent 2,958,045,000 SMS messages - or 102 per month on average. In the same period, the Danes sent 4,367,000 MMS messages.
SMS messages are short text messages sent from and received on mobile phones. MMS messages are multi-media SMS messages, predominantly sent from camera phones. The use of SMS messages is predominantly a youth phenomenon, but SMS is increasingly used instead of phone-in voting and in mail-in competitions.
