Where on Earth does it cost that much. OK - clearly in the US, because I'm pretty sure my China Mobile "plan" (you buy a SIM card with a number, use pre-pay cards to recharge) gives me 300 free per month, which is adequate for me. Minutes are cheap... but I don't know how much they charge per month. I do know that I spend less than fifteen bucks a month on recharges. Forty cents a message?

Tue, 04 Aug 2009 20:36:46 +0000 http://www.brendanloy.com/lrt/?p=2970#comment-708 I read somewhere that its cheaper to send data to the Hubble than it is to send a text message, byte per byte. How is ti that text messages not only cost so much, but their cost has INCREASED over time despite the fact that their transmission method hasn't changed? How is it that the prices for texts increased nearly uniformly accross all carriers? How is that not collusion?
