Just another sign you're getting old....our generation is the crossover generation....we can embrace communication technology and we are not affraid of it but we still enjoy doing this the old fashion way.

Is that really SENT?
I also have my hotmail and my facebook notifications on, so I do receive about 20-25 per day, but sent is what I'm curious.

I think that's the clincher for me in keeping my sent texts low. I think if I had a full keyboard, I would be sending a lot more often. T9 is still a pain in the ass.

Probably around 100 a month, a few a day sent.

Received is a lot more because of email and other services.

You think thats alot???

Girl, 13, sends 14,528 texts in a month

SILVERADO CANYON, Calif., Jan. 11 (UPI) -- A California father says he discovered his 13-year-old daughter sent 484 text messages per day last month -- one message every 2 minutes of every waking hour.

Greg Hardesty of Silverado Canyon, Calif., told the New York Post his 440-page cell phone bill revealed his daughter Reina had sent an astonishing 14,528 text messages.

"First, I laughed. I thought, 'That's insane, that's impossible,'" said Hardesty, 45, a reporter for The Orange County Register. "And I immediately whipped out the calculator to see if it was humanly possible."

Hardesty said Reina had messaged a core of "four obsessive texters," all girls between the ages of 12 and 13. Luckily, he was on an unlimited text messaging plan or his bill would have been $2,905 at a rate of 20 cents per message, the Post reported.

Hardesty told the newspaper he and his ex-wife have placed restrictions on Reina's cellphone use, ruling she cannot text after dinner.

When it comes to texting, it appears Reina has much in common with a New Zealand teenager. It was reported last month that Hannah Brooke, 16, of Wellington frequently uses up the 6,000 messages she's allowed each month and borrows phones from friends to keep on texting.

Exactly, that's a repost of my source in my OP.

This means that She_fitz texts every 6 minutes of every waking day each month.

You just need to practice.

I use T9 and it gets way easier the more you do it.

My monthly minute use only averages around 30/total. I rarely talk on the phone. I much prefer to text.

That really is not that bad when you think about it. Don't think about a text as a text, but just another communication avenue. So combine all the calls, emails, IM's, and forum posts, and I'm sure many of us come to a similar average. For some, most of these other avenues have been replaced by texting, so it is totally conceivable that somebody would do it that much.
