“Apple’s new iMessage simply rocks and it takes messaging on your favorite iOS device to a whole new level. It offers some new features that SMS cannot beat like multiple address support and selectable caller ID,” David W. Martin reports for Cult of Mac.
MacDailyNews Take: RIM’s hatin’ life. Luckily for them it’ll be over sooner than later.
“You’ll be able to receive messages from more than one e-mail address to your iOS device,” Martin reports. “If anyone sends a message to any of the addresses it shows up on the device for which this has been configured.”
Martin reports, “iMessage allows you to select what people see in the iMessage app when you text them. You have the option of allowing your Caller ID to display your phone number or any of the e-mail addresses you set up. If you select an e-mail address with your name as part of that address then people can quickly identify you the first time you text them.”
