Now you can send free SMS via your iPhone
Asmita:
Show me a person who isn’t interested in saving money and I’ll show you a ghost! iPhone users now have the super economy scheme available to them where they can use the AOL Instant Messenger on their phone to send and receive SMS messages without paying for a plan or individual messages. The messenger is now available for download in the iPhone’s App Store and to start making use of the economic service, you’ll have to download and start it up. To send a free text message to a pal whose number is, say, (617) 555-6868, then all you have to do is send an IM to +16175556868. A confirmation message from AOL will tell you that your message has been sent, and if your pal replies reply you’ll receive it on your phone as an IM. This cool new feature will be even better when the notification service works on applications sometimes this fall. Neat innit?
