''How r u'' has outpaced the more traditional, spoken greeting as a recent study shows U.S. mobile-phone users send and receive more text messages than telephone calls.

Cell-phone users ages 13 to 17 sent or received an average of 1,742 text messages monthly during the second quarter, while taking part in 231 phone calls monthly on average.
