in US operators hit with SMS charges suit on Mobile Industry Review
It's official - SMS 'more expensive than Hubble Telescope'. I read this article the other day that said it's 42 times more expensive to send a text message than it is to access data from the space telescope. (http://www.theregister.co.uk/2008/05/14/txts_r_...)

It's about time someone stuck it to the telcos. We are one of a handful of countries where we still need to PAY to recieve messages!! Ridiculous.

More people should get programs like Yoober (well, whoever has a phone that can support it!) until the Telco's in their ivory towers get the message and reduce SMS costs! (www.yoober.com)
