Just think of how much of your life you have wasted punching text into your phone.

I don't understand why you would send a text message on a phone, why type when you can talk?

Yours is nothing.

And I remember a thread on SprintUsers where users were sending over 10k per month.

There are some situations when it's good, but I agree for the most part. And I hate trying to punch text into that phone.

hate text messages, keypads so lame. and companies charging so much for a few bytes of data is absurd.

because you cant talk on the phone during class, and its often much quicker just to send a text than to call people, especially if youre hanging out with a group of people, you dont have to interrupt the conversation youre having for you to talk on the phone, you can simply send a quick text and nobody really notices nor cares.

My cousins (14 and 16) do a couple thousand every month. It is scary. Then again, they can actually type fast on a phone.

no texting crap.

i cannot stand voicemail, as a matter of fact i cancelled them on my phone. From usability perspective, a voicemail is a horrible solution for the problem at hand.
