Pretty much everybody, except retirees and toddlers, has at least one IM account now. IM accounts are free.
Yes. Except not everybody (not talking about retirees and toddlers) are on-line on IMs on their phones + that requires additional software, setup (if it's possible at all), not to mention the requirements for Skype and alike. IM are still far from being as ubiquitous as SMS's, low cost or not.
