Looking for a SMS app
In my new office I don't get cell reception. I need to be able to receive texts though. I do have access to wifi though. Any ideas?

I'd suggest Google Voice myself. You will of course have to have everyone switch to your new number, but you'd have to do that with any free textin app anyway. The official GV app still needs landscape support for decent texting, but otherwise it works well for me.
