Thread: I heard at a Cingular Booth you have to pay each month to use AIM on the...

...iPhone. Is this true? I feel like an idiot asking this, because im very good with tech stuff. But does the AIM app run on the 3G data network or would it run on WiFi? And i dont see how you would have to pay for something that you downloaded for free off of iTunes, and get charged for each message you send. It isint even a part of SMS. I really hope you dont have to pay, because im on AIM 24/7(well connected to it, not using it all day long), and I use that to communicate a lot more than on the phone or email.

It runs on any, EDGE, 3G, Wi-Fi.

And it's not SMS...it's data...so it's free.

Only the other AT&T phones are SMS...the reason is because:

AIM on the other AT&T phones is programmed by AT&T.

AIM on the iPhone is programmed by AOL themselves.

So it's free...you can even send free unlimited SMS from the AIM application...it's too good to be true...but it's true!
