I think the previous poster is expressing surprise that you have to pay to *receive* texts. For all UK (and probably European) call plans, texts are free to receive - even when roaming away from your own country. In the UK, it generally costs more to call a mobile phone (cellphone) than to call a landline - but it costs nothing to receive a call on a mobile. AIUI, in the US it *does* cost to receive a call on a mobile. Does this mean that there's no extra charge for *calling* a mobile? If so, I wonder whether that is the basis of the previous poster's question. Does the fact that you have to pay to receive an SMS mean that the sender pays less to send it? -- Cheers, Roger ____________ Please reply to Newsgroup.
