Sending SMS messages using computer?

I was wondering if anyone knew of any programs that would let me simply just send sms messages via the computer so i can type them using my keyboard?
I experimented with pocket controller, but its too bulky and slow and just emulates the screen, all i need is a simple sms message sender.

Check the Jeyo software:
Jeyo Mobile Companion
Jeyo Mobile Extender for Outlook

SMS cool from Aim Productions lets you send sms from your pc.. it should be out soon if it not already.

Seeing as you're on Vodafone you may want to check with them. They have created a little plugin for Outlook - in the UK anyway - that allows you to send SMS's from your PC and either have replies sent to your PC or phone. Its free - in the UK - until the end of the year and I presume will be standard SMS cost after that.
Its called Vodafone text centre which you should be able to find on www.vodafone.co.uk, sorry I don't have the link on me.
Pocket controller I use at the office and home, brilliant I think it is.

Quick google later, Linky
Will have to give it a try later

Try this program, Dr Neils SMS Utils, its free and you may donate to support Dr.Neils efforts.
You need to connect your PPC with Active Sync and the DNSMS utils will fetch all your sms inbox . You can use the same interface to send them too. Nice utility.
The only problem it will look for contacts in outlook. if your contacts are not synched with outlook then you would have to type the phone number as well.
if you have installation problems try downloading and installing the .Net Framework. from Microsoft website.
post your feedback to help others too.

yah you have to right click on the top tool bar and select sms for it to show.. something else i did as well to make it appear but forgot w
hat. i'm pretty sure its included in the readme which is there for a reason. :lol:

I think Jeyo is crap. The software is buggy, doesn't work for me and also doesn't receive SMS stored in subfolders. The developers know about this issue but haven't corrected it for months now. In my opinion, it's just a bad software.

so what would you recommend is better? also heres a firefox extension to send sms through google, i think it only works in the US and UK.

Jeyo mobile extender works fine for me with one exception:
it won't read the address book (fully patched Outlook xp)
Sends and receives OK if you manually type numbers in but once I hit the adress book or "to:" button, outlook becomes unuseable.
I think it is a security issue where mobile extender wishes to access the address book. Normallyy a window will appear and ask for permission, however with jeyo Mobile Extender this doesn't happen.
Buggy buggy, time to uninstall unless anyone has experienced similar and has a work around?

Outlook Mobile 6....

Well, i have seen numerous versions of WM6 in the other parts of these forums, and we recently got AKU3.3 (which i am more than satisfied with..)
however, lots wants more (not sure that is the correct translation )
I wonder if there are any way to extract Outlook Mobile 6 from the WM6 and install/replace Outlook Mobile 5 (Wm5).
I believe stranger things has happen on these forums
why would I want this? Well, basically, html mailsupport and because of that stop using Flexmail (don't quite like it..it is good, but hey, Outlook are so much more integrated with the os + emoze works only with Outlook.
anyone is doing this already? knows if it is possible?

Keep in mind what you're asking for from your is actually a 3-component solution:
- Outlook for WM6 on the handheld
- Outlook 2007 on the desktop
- Exchange 2007 on the server

And?

I guess his point is that very very few organizations currently use Exchange 2007.

i got two out of three
however, does html mail ONLY work with exchange 2007? not imap for example? and why not with 2003?

Agreed but those numbers should increase in the short term.
And I got 2 out of the 3 as well

Does the Sprint Touch have full Outlook Mobile 6?

Does Sprint give us the full version or "the Sprint Version" ? I have not seen what the Outlook Mobile 6 upgrade looks like so I don't know?
Under Office Mobile is just Word, Excel, and PowerPoint.
Under Mobile Email their is a "Download Now" for something called "Sprint Mobile Email for Windows Mobile" - which I haven't had a chance to DL yet - what's that ?

[WM6.5] "Enable Updates" in Pocket Outlook?

So I'm poking around in Pocket Outlook, and under "Menu>Tools>" there's a Greyed out item named "Enable Updates". I tried searching for any info regarding this, but couldn't find any. I can't find anything that allows me to use the item from the menu, but was curious what it was for. Anyone care to enlighten me?

This functions works with Exchange 2010
I don't know how, but it works only with 2010

SMS Sync works only with Exchange 2010 too...

Thanks for the info!

Yeah, it's an Exchange 2010 feature and seems it will also work with WM6.1:
Over the Air Update Mode
You can now push new Outlook Mobile updates/new versions to Windows Mobile 6.1 and above. This is really nice since you no longer have to wait for a new Windows Mobile OS version to obtain a new version of Outlook Mobile.

Also, slightly off-topic: Has anyone figured out how to actually send SMS from Outlook/OWA with Exchange 2010?

Microsoft Office Mobile 2010 Beta - Outlook?

Anyone notice any changes to Outlook on thier ATT Tilt 2 running WM6.5?
Supposadly, it should have "conversation view" enabled for emails, but I see no changes to Outlook after installing...

I didn't see any differences to Outlook either...even though 2010 replaced the 2007 versions of Exel, Word, etc.

look this!

The mobile Outlook update only applies to clients connected to Exchange 2010?
Lame.

wait ... there will be updates for everyone else, right ?

I'm running Office 2010 beta and quite enjoy the conversation view setting. Makes the inbox much less cluttered puts consecutive mails nicely in proportion.
A problem however - When I try and set up my TP2 with ActiveSync it doesn't allow me to sync my mail and calender. Says that Outlook is not installed.
I suppose the default Activesync version isn't compatible with office 2010, so anyone know of some updates or tweaks?
Thank you very much

I am nearly sure you have a 64 bit system. try it on 32bit system and office 2010 will sync.

You are running w/ Exchange to use the conversation view...right?

Correct, and yes, I'm using 64 bit on my computer. Office 2007 sync perfectly on the 64-bit. Oh well, for the mean time I'm "downgraded" again to 2007 until the final version comes out.
