I wonder if any consumer will ever be able to understand this...

I have no use at all for Nokia Messaging, but just knowing how it works for the average user would be interesting - maybe I'll just try to set it up when I come home and see what happens. According to the press release, there should be a €5/month fee, but there's no way I could actually order it from my carriers website. They would need to intercept my registration @ email.nokia.com to get my money.
