I tried the free trial and it worked a treat. Sent a message to my mate (as if it had come from his girlfriend) promising a steamy night of action if he got himself home straight away. You should have seen him move. Shame she wasn't home when he got there haha

Yeah i got it! It cost me about £11 in all to get the full version app plus about 110 or more credits!
The app is buggy - GPRS seems to connect sometimes and doesnt seem to be active. Also if u've used it once, then exited it, sometimes when trying to go back in2 it the message "MIDlet could not be started" comes up. The only way around it is to restart the phone! What a b!tch. It is dependent on GPRS connection but doesnt send/rcv a lot of data. It doesnt use the txt facility from your phone at all.
HOWEVER... when it does work is fekkin cool! U can send txts to ppl from another person's number - you can really screw around with ppl's lives. Fake their girlfriend's number sayin theyve "had enough" etc etc. Not only can u fake the number but u can send alphanumeric source numbers - instead of any number u could put "Sexy Man" for eg. A GREAT laugh! Some of the best ones are fakin messages from the network providers tellin ur mates theyve had a surchage put on their account sending the txt from "Orange UK" for eg!! LOL!
Costs are:
1 credit to o2 and orange
2 credits to T-mobile and Vodafone
(UK) it works in loads of different countries too.
And yes... you can have a flash message for the same amount of credits. This makes the message pop str8 up on the destination phone. The person can then open it and read it if they want to.
This app is still well worth it even tho its got bugs. SUCH GREAT FUN! its 0.07 euros per credit - so still cheaper than standard txt messagin anyway!

I've been using it for a few weeks now. As soon as I discovered it, I used my free trial message then instantly decided to buy the program and I got another 10 credits. After I used those up quite quickly, I bought another 100 credits and I don't have many of those left.
For those who don't understand yet, you can send messages to anyone you like buy you are able to enter in a "Source number/name", so you can enter in another number and the recipent will think it came from that number, or enter a name and the message will display that name as the source.
It's good in Australia because each message to all the networks is only 1 credit.
Some examples:
-From "God" saying I'm watching you from heaven.
-From a friend's girlfriend saying she was pregnant and really scared.
-From "Darth Vader" to a friend saying "I am your father."
-From a friend's ISP saying his account has been suspended for illegal activity.
-From a friend's Mobile Carrier saying he had won a competition and $1000.
etc etc
