Looking for text messaging software

I'm looking for software for my PC/Nokia 6600 that will allow me to read and send text messages via the phone from my PC.

My bluetoth connection is all set, and I use the Nokia PC suite.

I've tried using RemoteS60, and although it can be used to send text messages, I found it so cumbersome that its easier to use the phone.

The previous Nokia PC suite I used for my old Nokia 7200 had a nice facility for processing text messages, but this appears to be lacking in the new PC suite.

Cheers,
Bernie

Thanks for the reply, but I can't find any refererences to Desktop Message anywhere, other than a couple of forum posts.

Any idea where I can get it?

Cheers,
Bernie

1: Go to shop: http://www.allaboutsymbian.com/shop/

2: In the "Software Shop" section on the left, pick, e.g., "Purchase software in EUR (Euro", or "Purchase software in USD ($)"

3: Pick the "Nokia Series 60"

4: Up in the "Search for software" keywords field type "desktop message" without the quotes for keywords (actually, you find it even quicker if you type "DesktopMessage" with the quotes).

5: Select "DesktopMessage for Nokia 7650/3650" from the list.

6: Select "Try It" for a trial version or "Buy It" if you want to buy it.
