Texting is very very common in China - voice mails are practically non existent and texting is far cheaper than a phone call.

LONDON (Reuters) - Cellphone users in China sent 429 billion text messages in 2006, while India added more mobile subscribers in the year than Britain had in total, as the two countries joined Brazil and Russia in driving growth in the sector.
