Push notifications are the wave of the future

My cousin just sent me this via AIM on his iPhone. He’s at work in the basement of his college library where cell service is unabashedly terrible.

“ok so push notifications work down here over wifi. I have no cell coverage and I’m getting notifications.”

If that isn’t a reason to get rid of SMS in favor of a push-enabled IM app, I don’t know what is.
