Text from PC?

[igotskill]

Anyone know of a service that can send and receive texts from my PC, it can be paid and it has to have a personal local number(only me with access to the number).

I think you can get a real phone number with Skype, don't know what area code it would be though. Is it not possible to IM the phone?

I've looked at skype, you can send texts but you can't receive them, seriously why do they even have sms?

I'll look into it.

DeskSMS for Android (you have to pay yearly for it).. but its awesome.

MightyText for Android also works well.

I miss using MSN for texting, but now Skype wants to charge. I'm sure there are a million alternatives.

+1 for DeskSMS. The annual fee is minimal ($5 if memory serves).

Rarely do I advertise Robbers. But they have the RogersOne. Can be used from devices like iPhone, iPad, PC, iPod Touch, Macs, or most items with browsers. But that's only if you're with Robbers. It's an included free service

You can also use Text Plus, available for both Android and iOS
