At the place where sky meets world, business horizons open up -- or so hopes SkyTel Communications. The company, which was acquired by WorldCom in 1999, provides wireless messaging services, marketed mainly to business users. It has more than 1.3 million customers and offers a wide range of messaging services, including basic paging (SkyPager), one-way e-mail and voice messaging (SkyWord), two-way alphanumeric text messaging (SkyWriter), and wireless e-mail (BlackBerry and SkyTel eLink).
