still no UK free sms, sounds like they are prolly using email gateways to send em...

What would show up as sender on another phone if you used the sms part?

Thats good because my email is my name but the app textfree by pinger sucks cuz it says the sender is 532553465427234@pinger.com so my name doesnt show up. The best Frewe sms was infinite sms but google shut it down cuz they were "too good" so they wasted everyones dollar...ima try this app when i get the chance.

I forgot to mention, the app should have also supported keyboard in landscape mode as I find it a lot more convenient while chatting.

That's working! Thanks a lot, David.
