It's not unusual to find while roaming that MMS is cheaper than SMS. As in it would be cheaper for me to write out my message by hand, take a photo of it and sent that, than just to send a text message.

Yes, I noticed that, when I was visiting Crete a week ago. Back home in Germany a text message costs me 0.14€, during vacation I was paying 0.09€. Regulations create funny pricing structures sometimes. :)

Yeah, if I want to call UK number from my home network it will cost me 0.85€, and if I call the same number while roaming, it will cost me 0.30€ :-)
