Spam SMS? Do you get these? Seriously, you shouldn't be - SMS is a network protocol and anything being sent is via their kit and they charge for it. So, in theory, you shouldn't get any spam. Filtering on rules is something more interesting and possible with MS and Symbian stuff.
The problem for anybody working in this is that Phones are a shiny consumer product and the addressable market for anything else is going to be pretty small. Making phones work is massively expensive in terms of man hours and I just can't see the model for this. I just can't.
