Response to: No SMS with T68i?!
David, i am sorry if i sounded impolite. Didn't mean to sound so - might be because english is not my native language ;-) I'd be really interrested what specific word or sentence you found impolite? I think you missed (or i didn't make it clear) the main Point of my POST which was the Lacking User-Feedback from the AddressBook app. No dialog displayed after sending an SMS nothing, nada. That's what i call bad interface design. I am an Apple Seect Dev. member, so be asured that i'll pass them along my findings. As for the rest, yes - that's more a feature request, for instance have Address-Book read the Return-receipt Settings of my Phone and use them... For me, the metapher i think about when Sending SMS from Address Book is a "Remote control". Since i know, the mac doesn't have GSM built in, so it can't send SMS - it's only acting as a Front-End to the Phone, so my expectations are, that most of the Phones Preferences should apply.

  On the Orange Network here in the UK if you start the message with "RCT " (thats RCT followed by SPACE) you get a text message back thats basically gobblegook - but if you ignor the junk it shows the message has been delivered.
  
  Not as elegenet as the "Message Delivered" prompt on my T68i and it's Recepit mode, but useful none the less.
  
  I have just tried using this on Microsoft SMS Sender for Windows XP and it worked via that, where as the messages sent from it normally have no feedback on the handset.

  In Address Book, you need to tick on the Bluetooth icon, upper left corner, which will enable the (grayed-out) SMS and Dial functions.
