Yes, I have "unlimited" texting on my daughter's line.  It is not really 
unlimited because it is only on those phones in Verizon with a limit (1000, I 
think) outside of Verizon.  And I think there is even a limit on the In-network 
text messages.  But it is better than paying on a per message basis.  I will 
have to get my son a phone in the next year or two and I am sure it will have 
the same requirement.  I don't use text messaging - nor does my wife nor 
mother-in-law.

Who do they think would be stupid enough to consider this plan?  Someone who 
texts every minute of every day?  I don't get it.
