If you are like me you dont Text message from your phone for three reasons:

1. I Don't Have a Text Message Plan
2. I hate spending $0.15 on a Text Message
3. I can use SMS From The WEB
   

And Basically, you can always EMAIL a message to a phone with the simple formula PHONE # + @ + WirelessCarrirer.Address that equates to a proper email address.

Now wait until OS X is let loose on the iPhone...  Cellusaur become the e-Theropod!   And Yes, that's another story!
