Sending a Text message to a Verizon subscriber

If you want to send a Text message to a Verizon subscriber (just learned this today) from your computer, simply use your email client, and address a message to:  XXXXXXXXXX@vtext.com

…where XXXXXXXXXX is the phone number of the Verizon cellular customer.

Rod,

From what I understand, all service providers allow this.  For example, to get to Alltel - simply send to here: XXXXXXXXXX@message.alltel.com

Cingluar has a similar service, I just don't have it in front of me at the moment...
