Someone I exchange texts with on our phones had the problem of MMS

There's at least one more standard: RCS (rich communication services)
is becoming prevelent. It's meant as an enhancement (fancier text,
longer messages, file sending, etc (which sounds like reinventing
email, to me).
Chances are that a few service providers will be changing software to
accomodate it, and that may change other things at the same time. I
can well imagine the older services being relegated to crappy support
in an effort to kick people onto the new ones.
