Send free SMS to DTAC and TRUE from Gmail

[tunamelt]

Just noticed yesterday you can now send, and receive SMS's in Gmail's chat. The DTAC or True phone user can also reply to you as well. I assume it costs the user the normal SMS price to reply, but they are replying to a local number so local fees apply. Another win for Google.

 

Sorry AIS 12call users, you'll have to wait.

Yes, but SMS in Chat only works on phones with US phone numbers...

 

Just send an iMessage!
