AT&T Global Messaging 50 plan drops international SMS costs

Today AT&T announced its new Global Messaging 50 package. The $10 per month subscription lets you send 50 text, IM, picture, or video messages from more than 90 countries. The service, clearly not for messaging addicts, charges $0.40 cents for every sent message past the allocated 50. That's a $.10 savings over the typical $.50 international message cost, or $1.30 for MMS texts. The service kicks off on March 20th.
