SMS cost depends on destination country. Usually it is 2 or 3, 6 is maximum.

Beta-testers will receive 12 free credits.
After release one credit will cost 2 US cents.

In this case you need to install IM+ for BlackBerry Pearl 8100, 8800,
Curve 8300 and 8830.
This version works well for all 4.2 OS devices.
Please download correct version from our Web-site:
Software for PDA and mobiles: MSN/Live Messenger, Yahoo!, AIM/iChat, ICQ, MySpace, Jabber, LCS, Sametime, Oracle, Reuters, Skype
or from our WAP-site:
wap.shapeservices.com

Victoria, OTA doesn't have an option to choose from.

I tried to load address book and I finally I had to hard reset the device. Also SMS+ doesn't recognize +569xxxxx numbers.

Best,
Jaime

It's not bad, is it?
I will ask our developer if it is a bug or feature.

Not bad at all. It's cool that they can respond to your # or your email.

Does this charge based on SMS or on your data plan? What I'm asking is if I send a MSN message to my friend's MSN account, will it charge me based on the data for the transaction or for one SMS?

8820 - latest AT&T version of the OS.

All loads fine and can access AIM, MSN & Yahoo. Was able to obtain voucher and credits. When I go to send an SMS and choose load Address book, application hangs with an hourglass wait. Requires "remove battery reboot".

I think it's awesome that the most active beta users will get licenses... Thats doing business right kinda like Jive should have done (HInt hint I used all the jive betas and gave feedback and still have to buy my license!)

If you use MSN messaging, you are not charged for SMS. IM+ uses your data traffic only for sending IMs.
