Man, Nokia sure has some neat stuff coming out of their labs. This Text Art app for the E71 takes your SMS messages and re-jiggers them for MMS format, so when you want to send a particularly important text, you can give it that little bit of extra expression. Artist Marius Waltz came up with the impressive idea, and really adds a cool twist to the way we’re used to getting texts. Hopefully we’ll see this app migrate to other Nokia phones in the near future, and who knows – maybe other artists will take a cue and bring something similar to other platforms. Check out the free Text Art app and their other cool, artsy endeavors for the E71 here.
