I take it back...partlyThe text message can be relayed over the network as part of the intra-network signalling comms without requiring extra bandwidth. It's only the initial transmission from the sender's phone and final relay to the receiver's phone that requires a separate message to go out.
So in that sense, it's free to the operators.1
