It's no secret that SMS charges are way out of kilter with other types of mobile phone data. So eBuddy is hoping the opportunity to save money will attract users to its new eBuddy XMS messaging service for smartphones.
Global messaging leader eBuddy (with 30million users, including 500,000 in Australia) this week made Australia one of the first two countries in the world to receive eBuddy XMS, its newest free smartphone app. eBuddy XMS sends real-time free SMS messages from any smartphone to any other smartphone--whether Android or iPhone and is integrated with Facebook. (A BlackBerry version is due out soon.)
