Presentation of HeySms

======================



I made a small application to send and receive sms on your computer without a specific software.

You just have to use your instant messaging client ... Which have to be compatible with Bonjour protocol.



I made this application because my girlfriend send me a lot of sms when I'm working ...

Now I can answer her without taking my N900 ... 



Feature list

============

* Send SMS from your computer (using your bonjour client)

* Receive SMS on your computer (using your bonjour client)

* Silent your phone when HeySms starts

* Use Smssend to send SMS. Usefull if you can't send Sms wih standard method. (You need to install smssend package)

* Connect your phone to your computer using the USB cable

* Bonjour Bot to control your phone (called 'Controller')

* Controller will notify you if someone call you (Usefull, if your N900 is in silent mode)
