Am currently with T-Mobile and have the HTC Kaiser(or vario 3 as they call it).
As I have an unlimited internet usage on the phone, I just wondered if there was an easy way I can route a text to a mobile abroad via the web(and therefore text would be free).

I don't want to have to go to a website on the phone and do it, I'd prefer to be able to send like a normal text but to send it differently so it goes via web to the mobile.

What I wanted to do is replicate what you can do from a pc, which is send a normal style text from a website to a mobile. On the recieving mobile, it appears the same as any other text, so wouldn't need it's own internet connection.

Is this possible? How easy is it?

You can't do that

but you can do what I do

Setup your email account to send/receive to ur MS outlook mobile/ w/e ur email application is...and u can send texts by typing persons' number at watever..like

for at/ t 9729729722@txt.att.net . ...tmobile ....1111111111@tmomail.net
verizon 9999999999@vtext.com.....sprint...1234567890@messa ging.sprintpcs.com

these ppl will get the text and can reply to it...and when u get the reply in ur email inbox...it'll see the contacts name...not like blah blah @ tmomail.net

i do it..i.t works greatt

I'd do that, but for some reason when I send an email from my phone, it sends out two copies... I would hate to send two texts everytime!

Edit: I just looked into this some more since I have 'the time' and I realized that it's just my gmail account that is seeing the double emails since it's saving a 'sent' copy on the phone and then doubles it up in the gmail.com app. (so this will work! Now I'll have to go through and setup everyone's texting email and another gmail account just to have the responses go through it)
