28 Thanks for the info. Actually I haven't tried any version yet. I was
29 just curious about finding some app that might receive text message
30 sent from a cell phone. I.e. - instead of giving my cell phone number
31 which I'd rather keep private I might give a Google-Talk phone number
32 and receive the messages at my desk. I think this can be done with
33 Skype but you have to buy a phone number from them. It seems to me
34 that Google gives theirs out for free, at least right now.
35
36 I believe you are correct about the ?? versions. They aren't in portage here.
37
38 Thanks again,
39 Mark
