*Maybe some of you already know about this....I found out about a month ago*
If you have a Sprint cell phone & a house phone try sending a text to your house. Its hilarious. A woman robot voice reads the text to you & gives you the option to reply. I would have never known about it but my friend gave me his number one day & I assumed it was a cell phone #. So I sent him a text & got a text back saying "thank you for using text land line!" Then I got a call from him saying "what the heck was that? I just got some lady robot voice talking to me saying it was a message from your number" So far I think it only works with Sprint cell phones. My friend w/ tmobile has tried & it didnt work....but you could try it anyway  --------------------  |

that feature was a beta test they had going around for about 3 months it was pretty fun but it cost the person who accepts the call a nice bit of money :-/

It seems like the message would tell them about charges before they accept. but it never mentions charges. And I just tried sending one to Phat...we will see if it worked

SMS makes no claim of getting to the recipient fast, or indeed at all.
