textPlus Provides Free Unlimited Texting

Great news for iPod Touch and iPad WiFi-only users. The popular SMS service and app textPlus is giving away real cellphone numbers, which will allow you to effectively turn these devices into fully functioning mobile phones via VoIP. You’ll be automatically assigned a phone number, but if you wish you can select a specific number and area code for $1.99/year. With this textPlus number, you can text and chat with friends the same way you would through a mobile phone – even if they don’t use textPlus. However, this feature is only available in the US for now. However, International users can use textPlus for free app-to-app messaging anywhere in the world, and Canadians can also text within Canada and to the U.S. using the textPlus short code – 60611.
