I saw this come up in another post topic...is texting without a texting plan possible? Someone mentioned that you can text over 3g/wifi. Is this possible and if so how do you do that?
Thank you.

I think it would be like any other phone,
if you dont have a text messaging plan you have to pay for every text you send.

basically yes u can text with email
unless you have push you wont receive responses as quick as an sms
its basically 10digitnumber@whateverprovider.com.net as the outgoing address
and then write in you msg as you would a regular email.
SMS however is limited by how many characters you input so be aware of that
there's a thread over at ilounge

it's basically the same if you want to send them an MMS from your iphone as well.
I sent a few friends sms's this way yesterday
