Question To send an SMS to an American... ?

I'm trying to send a texto to an American frien living in Florida. His number is : XXX XX XX. But I don't know if there is a "prefix", the prefix for the USA are +1, if I'm not wrong (I'm sending that from France [+33]), but for Florida ?....
Could someone help me ?
Thanks

You need a 1 - (area code) which is 3 numbers, and then his 7 numbers.

Should look like this. 1-123-321-4444

Mhhhh.... ! It seems better
But alas I don't know the area code. They live near Lakeland in Florida (between Orlando and Tampa). But is it the same code and rules for a mobile phone ? and can you recognize a mobile phone with the number ?

I think there is an option to turn sigs off.


How much does everyone pay for an SMS?

I pay 23 cents per message

That equals aprox 16 US cents
0.089567 GBP (British Pound)
0.134315 EUR (Euro)
0.001713 EUR (Japanese Yen)

I used this handy tool: http://www.x-rates.com/calculator.html

I pay $2.99 for 300 messages but usually go over the 300 limit per month. I think they are like $.05 each after that.
