Customer sends 662,000 texts in a month, feels proud of his accomplishment

Well, it seems the ongoing wild race for the largest number a text messages sent via a cell phone has somehow managed to escape our attention. The current record holder is a US customer of AT&T, who says he sent exactly 662 258 text messages in 30 days using his iPhone 3GS. He reveals details about his accomplishment in video and claims his itemized, monthly paper bill contains more than 12,000 pages. We tend to believe that. Anyway, we don´t have the slightest clue as to how many trees it takes to get enough paper for that number of pages, but what we do know is you probably need a lot. Or at least, a lot more than someone who undoubtedly used software to cheat his way to winning the unofficial competition deserves. How do we know? Well, 662,258 text messages sent in 30 days is equal to about 15 per minute and you would have to do it like 24-7.
