Re: Broadband costs

Yeah, and they're charging up to .30 per message. You want to claim that SMS isn't high margin?
Yes, it is high. Don't like the price, then don't use it. I have SMS blocked on my cellphone inbound and outbound.

Don't like it/don't use it is a different issue from whether or not it's a cash cow. I use SMS all the time for per personal and business so I use a prepaid option but it doesn't change the fact that AT&T is making a mint on it.
