Kameron,

I’m not sure what you’re talking about — BlackBerries have been doing threaded SMS for years. In fact, threaded SMS was first invented for the BlackBerry. See US Patent 7,028,263.

I have a treo and the only reason I don’t switch to a new phone or a blackberry is the threaded sms messaging. It’s the most useful feature I’ve had on any of my phones. It makes things so much simpler when you can scroll back through directions or comments or meeting notes versus inbox delete delete delete for needed room or in the blackberry case scroll/roll through 100’s of messages to find the one needed. I haven’t understood for over a year why noone has picked up on this feature as prevalent as texting has become. You would think threaded sms/ text would be in high demand…however there are few who know about it. Everytime a friend uses my phone or asks why I still love my treo the answers easy. They become immediately jealous, wondering why their phones don’t have the feature.

There’s a nice new threaded SMS client on the market, costing just under five dollars. It has got great popup notification functionality; quick buttons for making a return call or SMS; and great display configurability. Check http://www.pocket-sms.com for more information.

My ‘Jiminy! SMS’ application does just this. It’s written in Java and runs on almost any phones with MIDP 2.0 (which should be all newer phones, including S60 phones).

I know, it could have been a bit more colorful, but at least it does what it’s supposed to. Lots of configuration settings for geeks etc.

I’ve been using coolSMSchat for a little while and find it to do an excellent job of threaded SMS on my 6630.

I would suggest anyone try it, for the price it’s completely worthwhile!

yeah this was “the feature” i loved on the palm OS other..it made their unstable OS acceptable..SMS and MMS applications are going to have to change in the next few years as it texting replaces voice more and more each day..what about an email like reply all feature for sms texts? so that you can have IM like conversations with a group of friends
