My 87 year old MIL texts. One of her several great grandsons will test her multiple times a day to check up on her. They all (the great grandsons) communicate constantly via text and often know more about what is going on than their parents. She (MIL) still lives alone in her house. They all think it is really cool to have a great grandma that has an iPad and texts.
In our Porsche club region the board members often send a group text to discuss an issue, or a change in plans. Far easier and faster than email. Many times an email gets delayed for some reason but text is virtually instant.
