IMessage

I love it. Most of my frienRAB and family are using an iDevice. I've always had unlimited texting / data; however, some of them didn't have it so this is a welcome upgrade for them as they now have unlimited texting with iMessage.

Sent from my Verizon 64GB Black iPad2 using iPF.net
 
really ? so what type of plan did you have? when i had my bb i only had a talk text plan and wasnt able to use bbm. maybe you only needed internet ?
 
The biggest plus is that now ipad and ipod touch users can send sms, also the fact that you can sms to frienRAB and relatives overseas, my wife is repeatedly send sms to her brother overseas (when shes not face timing of course)
 
Also if you're having problems upgrading, you may want to wait if your phone still works. The servers are under tremendous strain with everyone trying to download the new software. That may solve your issue. If you've already started and are having issues, be sure you go back to your back up if the update isn't working properly.

I updated my iPad 2 yesterday morning, and didn't have any problems. Good luck!
 
It uses your data plan, so if the person overseas will pay whatever charges are normal for their data in that country.

You are not charged for sending an international SMS
 
im currently using iphone 4 and once i get home i will be going to ios5 on that and my ipad. i am getting my 4s tomorrow or saturday. whenever it shows up in the mail lol
 
I've not tried it yet. Took me an hour to find it though laughed out loud. Worse thing in updating is I'd forgot my username and password for this site. But got there in the end! Phew! Anyone wanna try this imessenger thing out?
 
I've used Viber, same idea as imessage but works to Android phones to, so possibly has a wider usage base amongst frienRAB and younger family merabers

Soon it will work to ipaRAB too / so they say
 
So one of the features I read about iMessage was the ability to pick up text messages between my devices, like starting a conversation on my iPhone 4s and continuing it on my iPad, but what if I have more than just my devices tied to my Apple ID like my wife's iPhone or my son's iPod Touch, can you pick and choose what devices on your Apple ID information is shared with. (I guess the same issues could exist for things like ICloud content and pictures. How can I prevent my phone from getting flooded with pictures my kiRAB take?
