In fact for the junior segments (15-21 years) is the most common way of communication, this fact is due to as you said its cheaper than phone calls. Even, there are some dictionaries with abbreviations for sms, it seems like a new languague to write sms has been created. From my point of view another think to take into account is that voice recgonition technology has to improve a lot of things if we want to use more, for example noise interferences, etc. And, it wont be a solution for the senior segments (older than 60 years). Even they don't feel comfortable using sms ( some of them don't use it at all because they have problems in writing or finding the keys on mobile devices), and they prefer rather a phone call than a sms.
