I wonder how much text messaging costs in China, where $0.20 USD is a larger fraction of the average person's income. I suspect it's much cheaper, and yet the companies presumably aren't losing money on it.

"In China, text messages cost an average of 1.3 cents to send" Pulled from: http://www.marketoracle.co.uk/Article419.html 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!
