3000? per month?
Bl**dy 'ell!
If I had 3000 free SMS messages it would take me approximately 250 years to use them all - I'm not kidding, more than 1/month is a veritable indulgence.
My mobile is for mainly two things:
1) to receive calls;
2) it's got an alarm clock.

I can't help but think that constantly holding each-other at arms length with an electronic bushing will damage our society. If I have a need for human interaction, I'll walk up to one and interact with them. Zipping x word blurbs back and forth constantly is just absurd. It makes everyone faceless and surreal.
I have a cell phone, to make calls with - Texting is disabled - that is all. I prefer to deal with people face-to-face so I can observe and gauge their facial expressions and body language.

Stoic Joker, I agree that text messages lose so much emotion. That said, I think most people don't replace face-to-face communication with texts, rather they augment it.

Wow! That Swype looks really cool! I could totally use that. I used to use handwriting recognition on my Palm III a long time ago, and it was good. Fast is good. Slow is no.
