I must have saved over 5000$ over the 5 months that they had the 10$ sms plan. :) Marzouq: I averaged it out after they started charging per sms, My phone bill would have been ~1500$!

Took them a couple months to realize how many messages Kuwaiti students could send for free; I was averaging 300+ a day.

I've got a messaging bundle though: $2.99 for 300 msgs of any kind (txt, picture, video), which is a brilliant deal (but I still get charged 15c for every msg I send to the UAE). Speaking of Etisalat..I just visited their website for the first time in aaages and I noticed they've got a new look..I love it! The old one was ridiculously childish and blah...What do you think of it, Mark?
