I'mnot@home.yet - 16 Feb 2007 05:04 GMT

I'll be in Paris for a few days next month and I've added Worldclass
Service so I can call for .99/min.
I use ICQ at home. What's the most efficient way to text message to my
family in the US? Is it using ICQ chat or SMS over ICQ? Is there a
difference? How does it differ on the phone (A Nokia 6010)?
I don't have text messaging on my plan, so I can get text via email,
but can't reply to an email address--or is there a way?
If anyone has any comments or answers, please let me know!
Thanks--
Paul

You can text from your phone to an e-mail address- send a text to the
"phone number" 500. Start the message with the e-mail address, a space,
then the body of the message. (i.e.: joe@blow.com How's it going?)
