Answer 3

If you are going to be a heavy user of Yahoo SMS I dont recommend it- it will be 1/2 a unit for each way sending and receiving - $.05 per message

One way you can aleviate costs is to use your PC on one side

if you are at home--

Yahoo SMS Messenger

I would also consider going to Verizon Txt messaging site and use that to send messages and just have recepient return message to your email

If you have the mobile web you can also access

Yahoo messenger this way too

Go to yahoo mobile front page
