Cheap International Texting

Hi

I have a friend in Norway, whom I text quite a lot, which obviously costs me quite a bit of money, as it's not included in my free texts on my contract. Currently it costs 12p a text with O2, but I may be switching to T-Mobile, where they're 20p each.

Is there a good service I can use to be sending these texts, as cheaply as possible? Somewhere I will be able to browse to online with an iPhone or HTC Desire, or an app I can get for either of those that has that functionality?

Thanks
