Re: send text msg to phone from IBM i

[Brad Stone <bvstone@xxxxxxxxx>]

My mom thinks every alert on her pixel is from Facebook... News, email,
messages, etc.  A lot of it is, but not when I send her a text.

We're scared to put my folks on the newer pixels that don't have buttons on
them and you swipe/gesture for everything.  And my dad complains of weird
"orange screens" that pop up all the time.  I find a lot of risque pics on
his phone when I go to clean it up that he gets when he downloads his
gambling games somehow... hah.. he's 82!

When I retire, I will be getting a clamshell for sure.

And again, back on topic... you're rare.  Next time you're out, at work, in
a group.. just look at everyone buried in their phones.  Even driving.  And
they can't look at email alerts?  Oh well, don't let your license keys
expire!  :)
