Wi-Me is a simple program for sending SMS and MMS messages from your Apple computer to a mobile phone. It uses your regular email program and account to send your message. You can send SMS messages and in some cases MMS messages with picture attachments. Wi-Me is currently set up for use with certain US carriers.

Why would you want to do this? Perhaps because you're clever and frugal (not to mention good looking and charming) and see no reason to pay an additional charge to send the message when they're already charging you to receive it.

Many SMS widgets and other programs like this use their own gateways to send the message and charge you a fee to pass through that gateway. Wi-Me uses your own email and the mail2sms/mms gateways of the major carriers to deliver your message to your own or your friends' phones. By using your own email accounts that are set up in the Apple mail program, you avoid secondary pass through fees.

This initial version of Wi-Me is freeware. If you like it, consider making a donation or visiting one of the advertiser sites to your right. It's a spare time project for me and it may or may not be further developed depending on the interest it gets. It offers no guarantee of usability or stability so download it and see if it works for your particular setup. It runs on Mac OSX currently. Drop me a note if you have constructive ideas or comments.
