^I got that last night but have yet to try it. FYI, you need a data/Wi-Fi connection (at least for Apple units; not sure about Android and BB)

bite sms 5.2 also has this integrated smoothly with it. You can sms either mobile provider or textfreek - customized per contact. It also remembers which one you used last per contact.

Yup internet is a must. The good thing is once you registered it shows your contacts which have already registered to it too.

This is gonna be great for sending international sms. You'll have to invite your friends and relatives overseas who uses the supported smartphones.

Also supported are the iPad and iPod touch. Now my kids can text me anytime when they are home or in a wifi hotspot using their iPod touch.

Now They won't ask me for load.

Is it somehow the same as HeyWire ?

So it's basically like IM? Or more accurately, email?

**einnor** · 03-30-2011, 06:12 PM

yup pretty much but the beauty of it is it's integrated with your messaging system (if you're using bitesms 5.2) and no logging in required since it is connected with your mobile number. downside is notifications and data or wifi should be on for you to use it.

is this service pretty much the same as the bb messenger?

I tried this and they'll assign you a number or something like that but my registration kept being denied so I just deleted the app :/ I don't know if this is like HeyWire or it's just like PingChat.
