It took less than a week for Beeper Mini to run into a wall.

    The ability to message people who don’t own the same phone as you.

      I’m not sure why you think I can’t do that.

        iMessage can only send SMS messages to non Apple phones, which suck. And if you have friends in other countries get crazy expensive and suck even more.

            Also if you’re in another country almost everyone charges for roaming sms but you can use messaging apps on WiFi for free.

      You also cannot call someone who has a different name or model phone as you.
