Hi Nick, that's good to know...however the method isn't as important to me as the cost involved. I could do either email or http just as easily. However if I go the route of emailing via the carrier itself it's "free-ninety-free" as opposed to whatever the cost would be at txtconfirmation. Since I'm not making tons of money on my app I would need to offer something as cheaply as possible to my users, and any additional costs would get passed along to them; so if I go through their carrier, they would only need to worry about their own text messaging fees, with nothing added on by me. Thanks again for all the info.
