    SMS from the desktop has the potential for REAL ROI benefits and would be a valid reason for many to upgrade to Outlook 2007. Unfortunately, although Office 2007 was available to developers for more than a year prior to launch, T-Mobile and other cell providers still don’t have support in place for Outlook 2007′s SMS features.

    Just use our e-mail to SMS service, then you can use any e-mail client on any operating system. Other benefits like being able to access your account from a web browser when away from your own PC.

    Hope that helps.

    Config with 2007 is a cinch – you can actually just click on an oms: link such as

    oms:https://oms.aql.com/outlook.asmx

    (if you don’t have an aql.com user/pass -goto try.aql.com)

    For more details on 2007 have a look at
