Cell Phone Texting Explained?

Post by Lyg »

Hi all, I am hoping you can explain to me texting to cellphones from AIM. I am not talking about the cell user being online through message forwarding, but I remember hearing that the official AIM client for Windows added support for cellphones and I could simply add someone's number to my buddy list and then text him or her from AIM.

How can I do this with Adium? Which service should I select when I choose Add New Contact…? Anything else I should know?

Thank you!

AIM: For US cellphones, like if the phone number was (123) 456-7890 then do a new IM with +11234567890

Change 1234567890 with the phone number
