there are good questions, i have found that when selecting contacts, first and foremost this has a finger flick interface for EVERYTHING. When scrolling thru contacts it will list them individually...i.e. "Joe Mobile" and then "Joe Home".

I do not know about the email gateway.

Unlike palms threader, once a thread is started you can still open the thread and tap on any message inside the thread and get an options list. So lets say your texting "Susy" and you wanna forward a message from the thread to someone, in the palm app, you have to go to sent items and then go to resend it. In vitos app, you do it from within the thread. I think you should try it out. If you dont like it, just reinstall your palm app. I doubt u will be dissappointed tho.

Is it possible to remap the text notification box in HTC Home to open up this app?

**EDIT**

Is there any way to get S2U2 to catch this instead of leaving the SMS on the S2U2 screen?

pretty sure it can be done, i dont know how though, it still opens up the default app. im not sure what u mean about the seonnd message.

When I get a new SMS and my phone is 'sleeping' S2U2 will pop up saying I have a new SMS and the VITO app will pop up showing me this SMS.

I wish mine did that.

I never know when i have a text.

This app is definitely not ready to be purchased. They have a lot of work that needs to be done.

if they can fix this delay problem, which seems very random, then id be sold. thats the only gripe i have, sometimes it sends right away, seemingly when the app is open. sometimes when minimized it also sends right away, sometimes it doesnt. Im still waiting from a reply from the email i sent them. If they cant fix this, as pretty as this is, ill be going back to the palm app

whats supposed to be so good about this? and u have to pay.... isnt pocketcm the same thing but much more.... and its free ??? ._.

u just have to try it, ull see....

While it is a very nice app, I agree it is not ready for purchase. I have not sent any messages yet so I don't know about the delay.

I have experienced the keyboard issue on the Touch (it uses the password keyboard instead of the XT9).

Also when I get a message I do get the SMS-Chat notification on the screen and also the notification LED (changed from green to orange), but after opening the message, the LED never changed back to green, the notification does not seem to clear.

The pictured would be a huge plus as well.

A tip, if you use the standard SMS app (Outlook) and have folders for your friends or whatever (to save received messages), they will not be incorporated into the threads. The app takes messages from the Inbox and the Sent Messages folder and makes them into threads. Because of this, my threads are all made of sent messages from Sent Items and have no incoming messages.

Quitting SMS-Chat and moving everything back to Inbox and restarting SMS-Chat will fix the app. It seems that SMS-Chat checks for this every time it is started in case messages were sent/received before it was opened and went to the stock app.

I'd also recommend backing up your messages before installing this. I used dotfred's PIMBackup. And the Palm Threaded users just need to copy the PalmMsgVol001 (or something like that) file in the \Windows directory.
