Probably not what you're looking for but you could do this with Google Voice. However, it's not really an SMS via WiFi app. GV allows you to send/receive SMS via your GV number via the GV web site.
I'm not aware of any such apps. It seems like any such app would also have to be tied to a service since your tablet probably doesn't have a mobile number associated with it. Something has to intercept the messages and then relay them to your tablet (and vice versa).

I'm going to second Google Voice - you get a free phone number and the app lets you send text over WiFi.
unfortunately I got the google voice app and unable to log in even though info is correct.. Able to use online via computer though. But does nto help with using my tablet sending SMS messages..

You cannot send or receive SMS via WiFi. Try it on your phone- doesn't work. SMS is a carrier service, so you need a carrier signal to do it.
