Mobile IM Questions.

I am a Verizon Wireless customer, and I just recently discovered the
feature known as Mobile IM. What I would like to know, is does it cost
to send and receive instant messages to people who have Mobile IM set
up on their Verizon Wireless too?


For example, I log on to Mobile IM with my AOL Instant Messenger
screenname, and I want to message a user who has their AOL Instant
Messenger screenname signed on in Mobile IM on their Verizon Wireless
cell phone. Would this cost to have a conversation back and forth?
Because I have a text messaging plan to where I can send and receive
texts to any Verizon Wireless customer for free, plus get 50 additional

text messages to send/receive after that to non-Verizon Wireless
customers.


Does anyone have any idea about this? If you do not understand what I
am saying, feel free to ask for a more in-depth description. Thanks in
advance.

Any Mobile IM (AOL IM) address is *different* than "Any Verizon Wireless
Customer" as referenced by your Verizon text messaging plan. Even if the
other Mobile IM user is on the Verizon network.

I am afraid in this case, sending Mobile IM messages will not be free with
Verizon.
