Default EU forces mobile price cuts (SMS, data etc.)

Seems timely, given some recent discussion here...

Basic upshot is that texts will be capped at 11 euro cents, data at 1
euro ber MB. (The latter is less than some UK companies (mostly PAYG)
charge for domestic data usage!)

(Caps ex VAT.)

Good news IMO.
