I am unlikely to change provider simply to use this service. It looks like some other service providers offer this service - e.g. Orange UK, T-Mobile etc. - but as I don't have a telephone number with these providers I cannot register on their websites to use the service! If you know a way around this minor inconvenience please let me know, or better still, why not post some web addresses where free messaging is available - I am sure we are all interested! Skype is an excellent tool on my desktop - shame it doesn't have this feature on the M810/N800 version. Cheers J -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
