Looks like they only support WinMo phones (ie. they only support crap).
Which probably also means they only support Windows for the desktop (more crap).
Let me know when they support Nokia phones and Linux & Mac on the desktop. And I'll give them a nice bonus if they support non-phone end devices (Maemo devices like the N800 and N810, or MIDs and UMPCs, whether they're running Linux or Windows).
Sean replied to me in email that it's a web client, so I am _happy_ to take back that part of my criticism :-)
Sounds like S60 phones might be on the way too. Again, happy to be wrong there (or soon to be wrong).
For those that are using this, does the "Send SMS from your PC" mean that you use the web client to remote control your phone? Like, compose the SMS on the web client, and it sends the SMS out through your phone? Can you also use the web client to read your SMS's? What about long term storage of SMS messages (so that they don't clutter my phone)?
And will it work to control your phone at 1x and EDGE speed, or only at 3G speed (ie. if my phone and I are in a slow area, will I no longer have synchronization between the phone and the web client)?
Now that we've thrown 'em off the trail, use the form below to get in touch with the people at Engadget. Please fill in all of the required fields because they're required.
Bah!

It's web based... so it'll support whatever OS you choose. Series 60 support is coming and presumably others are not too far behind.

It'll sync no matter what speed you're on. SMS messages are sent via the web through your phone.
