Re: how many minutes and text messages do you average per month?

I probably talk around 500 minutes a month or so, but I dont text at all. I just havent really gotten into it. I hate typing on the phone...the keys are so small and it just irritates me. I dont actually pay for any texting package either.

Re: how many minutes and text messages do you average per month?

I'm generally at around 700 minutes a month now, and was at about 1000 for a few months. Thankfully I have rollover and we were banking them like crazy a while ago, had over 2500 at one point.

I just got a new phone with a data and text plan and have been using about 200 texts a month and about 500MB of data.

Re: how many minutes and text messages do you average per month?

My gf and I have 700 minutes on a shared plan, and I rarely use my phone. Usually, we're nowhere near our limit, but we bought a house last month, so lots of time talking to realtor, mortgage broker, builder, etc., etc. . . . Holy crap, we blew right threw the 700 minutes , and had $140 on top of the normal bill.

Average text messages: 0. I agree with Outlaw Titan: Why type with your thumbs when you can dial and talk?

Texting works well when you have a non-urgent question or are in a situation where you can't talk, meetings at work or loud places. I also use them more when I'm in the car with other people.

I don't text message.

My co-worker's 16 year old daughter hit over 14,000 messages last month. Yes, over 14,000 messages.

Re: how many minutes and text messages do you average per month?

Probably about 500 minutes each month. Funny, I used to text a fair bit with this tiny, little flip phone and now that I have a Blackberry, I don't text at all. I sent 0 texts last month.
