Text Messaging from your computer
To send a text message from your computer to someone's cell phone, do the 
following. There will be a complete list of cell phone suffixes to use at 
the end of the steps.
1. If you want to send a text message to someone using A T&T, for example, 
and their cell phone number is 555-555-5555. You open a new email message 
and in the " To " field type 5555555555 at txt.att.net You don't put any dashes 
in the cell number, just the digits.
2. Tab to the subject field and put in a subject line.
3. Tab to the edit field and put in your message. Then send as usual.
They receive the text message and, when they reply, it comes to your inbox. 
Here are the email suffixes you add to the cell phone number.

So how do you determine which carrier is used by the person you are
texting from email?
Thanks so much!
PS Ken, I  have a link to that Apple event if you missed any.  PM me. Thx.
