It has come to my attention that many people dont know the sms trick with AIM.
what you will need:
AOL Instant Messenger account
AOL Instant Messenger (mobile chat, agile, apollo)
a person's cell number
Ok all you need to do is add a person's phone number to your buddy list. In the U.S. phone numbers are set up like so (555)444-3333. When you add it to your buddy list it should look exactly like this +15554443333. What you do is add the + sign and a 1. The 1 is what people in the U.S. have to dial for a number outside our own area code. How this works in other countries im not sure. The person you send the message to DOES NOT have to have AIM. The message you send will go right to their phone. If you are running firmware 2.0 and have the *AIM app from the appstore you should be able to do this right from your phone. If you are jailbroken and have any of the chat clients that offers AIM you should be able to do the trick with that. also if you are sitting at your computer and have AIM running you can use that also. The only drawback is if the person replies it will go to your AIM. Now that wont be a problem if you stay connected to the chat client. If you close it the message will go to outer space, never to be found again. The other possible drawback is that this might be a U.S. only trick. If some of you from other countries could try this and let us know that would be great!
EDIT: *DOES NOT WORK WITH AIM APP
questions and comments are always welcome.
nominations for the new contest would be REALLY appreciated
