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.

You forgot the second part of the quote.. “which is fucking bad ass.” But believe you me I’m considering trying to ditch SMS.
