Phone broken -- is it possible to get texts online

My phone broke this weekend. I cannot get a new one until probably late afternoon tomorrow. Is there any way possible to read text messages online?

Hi,

No, text messages are delivered to devices only.

You can send text messages to another person's phone as if it were an email and when they reply it will come to your email. So for instance if your email is Tbarnzee@me.com you can send to < 5555555555@vtext.com > and it will arrive to their phone.

If they have a different provider then each provider has a different email suffix:

AT&T – cellnumber @txt.att.net
Verizon – cellnumber @vtext.com
T-Mobile – cellnumber @tmomail.net
Sprint PCS - cellnumber @messaging.sprintpcs.com
Virgin Mobile – cellnumber @vmobl.com
US Cellular – cellnumber @email.uscc.net
Nextel - cellnumber @messaging.nextel.com
Boost - cellnumber @myboostmobile.com
Alltel – cellnumber @message.alltel.com

Hope this helps

Since you've replied to a three-year-old thread, I'm sure they've got things figured out by now.
