There are unlimited text messaging plans for $20/mo, and there are “unlimited” data plans for $30/mo. But why pay for the data plan? Why not convert your data to be sent as “text”? If one were to implement the tcp protocol over SMS, they could avoid paying for the data plan. Of course, you’ll need a smart enough phone that could collect these text messages and recompose them back into their original form. Further, the load on the carriers would be much greater, but who cares about those greedy scoundrels.
