Great for what it does
Just to clarify, this is not a true SMS messaging application--it does not send the messages itself, nor can it receive incoming messages. What it does do is take mobile phone numbers from your contact list, use its servers to figure out what carrier your contact uses, and format the to address on an email from your primary email account. The e-mail is then sent to your contact’s phone as an SMS message.
However, this can actually be an advantage: since your messages do not need to go through their servers, you wont be affected by Freedom server outages, nor will your message be delayed by a message backup on their servers (toug it may be delayed by the carrier itself).
While you can find all of this information online yourself, for me the convenience of having an app that does the lookup quickly and automatically is definitely worth the 99 cents.
