> So I'm reading over the iOS5 stuff on apple.com and don't see any fine print in the iMessage material that carrier texting charges apply. Is that an oversight or do they somehow not apply?
It will bypass the carrier's texting system, a potential financial hit to the carriers (who I suspect will just jack up the data rates to make up for the lost revenue).
I bet most people will continue to keep a texting option in order to text to their friends without iOS devices, but the day of people purchasing unlimited texting contracts will go the way of people paying $2 for ringtones.
