For the last 6 months, I have been using the capability of AIM to send IM's as normal SMS text messages. However, recently, at about 6 AM, this capability ceased working.

After turning my blackberry on and off repeatedly, and starting a new AIM account to test if it was just AIM, I am still unable to receive IM's as SMS text messages. I have no desire to pay exorbitant fees every month for data plans just to IM from my phone when I've had that capability already.

Can anyone tell me if there's some easy fix, or do I need to go out and buy a different kind of phone?
