"In China, text messages cost an average of 1.3 cents to send"

Pulled from: http://www.marketoracle.co.uk/Article419.html

I thought this line was a bit staggering "...the average cost of a text message is $0.10. Last year, mobile telephone operators pulled in $50 billion in revenues just from text messaging."

$50 billion, that's a nice racket!
