People who want to receive sms messages in their phone have to register and not all of the companies of cell phones have this option available (for example, here in spain, we can't do that). To register, you have to do this: in the main messenger window, click the menu Tools > Options. Select the phone tab and click the configuration button. A web page with the instructions will be opened.

Why sure you can (via MSN Mobile), it's just a very slow and inconvenient way of communicating, and rather expensive. Get a smartphone or something... (like Nokia 6600) and install a program like Agile Messenger - it'll let you chat with your Messenger contacts almost as if you were in front of your computer.

A good lengthed chat (30-45 mins) via the phone requires approx. 120 kb of GPRS data. Price of 1000 kb of data: $1.20. So it's not that bad. Much cheaper that SMS. :p

AgileMessenger deserves more credit than that...:| It's a really nice program, I tell you! :D It lets you easily send pics that you've just snapped with the phone's built-in cam, and it lets you easily create vioce recordings and send them litterally by the push of a single button...

that might be so. But why is he cracking nokia down and why would you buy a nother cellfone when you have one that works fine and that you can send msn messages ;)
