chompSMS - Top 5 Free Android Apps 2009
Developed by chompSMS
Text is cheap, but chompSMS promises to make it even cheaper--and more user-friendly. Offering a host of messaging features including an iPhone-like onscreen keyboard, signatures, chat-style bubbles and color customizations, the clean, intuitive chompSMS interface delivers a superior experience to the native Android text messaging app, complete with large-font support to enable easier reading. But chompSMS not only features better messaging--it also features more inexpensive messaging. Users may purchase credits directly from chompSMS, which promises a flat rate per-message fee across all of the international markets its network supports, transmitting each message via Internet data connection instead of the operator network. Upcoming new features including onscreen keyboard auto-correction and T9 predictive typing suggest chompSMS will remain an Android app worth texting home about.

Nice piece of innovation. Although not a market first. Since the early WAP years, services like this have been popping up. I used many of them (click here to see some others for Symbian, Windows, etc : tinyurl.com/c6molt )
Downside of these clients:
- they often do not run in the background
- they need a data connection for sending/receiving
- they are not as instant as sms (pull in stead of real push)
- they eat your battery
- they even more often crash
- they require you to buy credits via credit card
- the services disappear often as fast as they appear.
I'll stick to the operator's SMS for sure.
