> US carriers really don't understand SMS or why it's interesting. Agreed, although their efforts to integrate it with online instant messaging are interesting. > What I'd really like to see is a carrier plan where an SMS message >costs me a voice minute from my bucket of minutes. My carrier Cingular sells me SMS buckets, too. It's $3 for 100 messages, 10 cents for overage, or $8 for 750 messages, 3 cents for overage. Even paying for incoming messages, I find that 100 is plenty. I guess I don't have as many friends as the kid with the $80 SMS bill. Regards, John R.
