Microsoft Brings Instant Messenger to Cellphones | |
|
||
| Time: 01:54 EST/06:54 GMT | News Source: Reuters | Posted By: Byron Hinson | ||
|
Users of Instant Messenger can keep receiving messages, even when they are not logged on to their personal computer, as Microsoft and eight European mobile operators expanded the service to cellphones on Monday. A message sent from a PC to a user who is 'off-line' will automatically be forwarded to his mobile phone in the form of a short SMS text message. Replies from a mobile phone will land back in the Instant Messenger dialog box on the computer. Mobile phone users will be charged per message received or sent. | ||

| I thought you could do this already for a while now, or was that just in the US? The "Send a Message to Mobile Device" option in Messenger has been there for a few versions now I believe. |

Not that I think this is bad, but it's not new.
I logon to AOLIM via my Nokia phone for free, just pay $3/month for 500 STM's (or as voicestream calls them, ping pong messages). Although, they aren't exactly the same, it is pretty close. |
