AIM from Your Cell Phone

AIM on your cellphone: Does someone want to try this and let us know how well it works?

Today I stumbled across some very interesting documentation on how to use AOL Instant Messenger on your cellphone WITHOUT having to pay for web access and without buying an expensive ‘AIM ready’ phone.

I know the 4646 technique was working for AT&T Wireless six months ago. Since then I switched to T-Mobile and AT&T Wireless was acquired by Cingular so I don't know if it still works. It works for T-Mobile.

The problem is that each message counts against your SMS usage. It may be less expensive to use an AIM ready phone and a data account, like the Sidekick from T-Mobile. It depends on how many messages you send.

It seems that corporations out there are finding new and more obnoxious ways to get more and more money out of all of us. In peoplepowergranny.blogspot.com tonight I write about how their sticky little fingers find more and more ways of getting richer on our behalf. Also vote in my poll on what angle bothers you most!
