Are those irrational numbers? Does he get charged differently for sending an irrational number of texts?
Sorry for being stupid/out of the loop, but what is a "SMS"? :|
Ah, thanks all.hey69 said:its one of the biggest cashcows of telecom providers
I don't like IM much and I hate phones, so it kind of makes sense that I didn't know it.

How come an integer being an irrational number?
In Taiwan, many telecom companies charge NT$1.5/NT$2 per SMS. To send this amount of SMS will require a hefty amount of money (more than US$8k). However, according to the news report, he is using unlimited SMS service with fixed charge.

It's in the wrong place to be a "thousand divisor" comma, so it looked funny.
Sorry, it was a European joke, where the comma is the ango-american "point". So that would be a number with 2 points, which is not possible.

Besides that, there are only 2 digits between the commas which is kinda strange. Would make more sense if it said 1,082,689 instead of 1,82,689.
