A C# written by someone on Boards but modified by myself to work better with Meteor.

Basically.. the MyMeteor.ie / Meteor.ie site used for sending text messages is brutal (timeouts frequently occur and phonebook is friggin useless!)

So MeteorSMS gives you a basic form - enter in your number and password in top. And a basic working address book along it. So write your message and click send!

Very basic design (poor even!) but works very well!

Interface attached (with comments) but with my names / numbers cleared off.

Nice one, that's a great little program. Way smoother than the crummy phone book on the Meteor site.

Hope you don't mind me taking a copy. Thanks for putting it together.
