She has a subscription where she can call friends and send SMS all she wants at no charge at all. A few years back, 3 or 4, I knew a PhD student doing her research on these new communication forms. In Sweden we had a TV program on language and new forms etc. The PhD student was totally fascinated by Rebecca's communication. They brought a TV team in to the house to interview and film her. The cameraman's jaw dropped when he saw that all the numbers and letters had been worn off of the keys. They were totally blank. She was like a card shark. She could write a little essay while talking to you and you never even noticed she was doing anything else other than hold her phone. > It's not only love. Girls just like talking.

She had one of those (pre-paid) but it was actually cheaper to have this subscription since calls and sms's are free. The monthly service charge is less than charging up a pre-paid card. Daniel
