Hey everyone, I was just wondering if anyone knew of an app that allowed to send my text messages to my mac, and then allow me to reply to them. I've been using android-notifier with notify.io for a while, but it doesn't let me respond. SyncSMS does very similar things, but its from Android Phone to Android Tablet. Any suggestions?
 
Many people (at least that I've talked to) don't realize you can use email to send texts to people, or vice-versa, send a text to an email address

Dude thank you so much!!! I kinda knew that was possible in the back of my brain but never really utilized that feature until RIGHT NOW! Thanks again.
 
Not an app but I use Google Voice for this. You can send/receive SMS from any internet-connected PC via the GV site. Comes in handy for the times I forget my phone or even when I'm sitting at my desk at work (or home for that matter).
 
Gmail from a desktop also allows you to send and receive SMS. You have to go into Google Labs in Settings and enable it. There is a 50 msg limit at first but you can earn or buy more.

I second this. You can have your text messages forwarded to your gmail address, which can then be forwarded to other addresses (if necessary).
 
Apps that do this exist. Search the market for "sms2pc" or "remotesms" or "mobiledit"

I haven't tried any of them, but they apparently allow you to compose sms from your computer (mac and pc) and transfer sms back and forth.
