Before you suggest email, I want to say that isn’t what I want.

I would like to have a phone number I can share with people and enjoy as many text messages as I can until my thumbs fall off.

I use about 1000 a month on average. That’s why I have an E61.

    This is why T-Mobile is my carrier of choice… 9.99 a month for unlimited text on every line…

    Back when I was doing 15-20k a month in SMS came in REAL handy… even now i still do about 4k
