      I bought the new 640 XL - It's been a good phone - no lockups, the battery lasts for two days of normal full use, etc.

        As for the OP - Send... That does look pretty cool! allows for secure fast quick communications. To bad I don't have O365 to test it with.

        It would also be nice to see it blend with a text messaging app so those users who use O365 go through that, and the rest would go through normal texting. Think iPhone messaging - if both parties are on iPhones, then the message is sent completely through Apple's system, otherwise it's sent through normal texting.

            I sent this out to our sales managers to see if it has value. There are a few people without iOS devices so they may not see it.

              We have installed it here and are playing with it. First impressions: so yeah it sends instant messages that I have already gotten on my phone to my inbox, well that's sorta cool so that I can search things later, but it's only the what you have received side of the conversation.
              This is just one more IM app to deal with. If it ties in with something else that might make it better. I just want Skype for Business to be stable and so far it's still a no go. Because SfB will send to your email as well (or at least your conversation history does) so that (when working) already does the same thing.

                For a first release (that I know of) it's not bad. But as @Minion-Queen stated, it's just another IM tool.

                There were I few things I noted while starting it up.

                The login screen could use some work. took me a moment to find were to poke it to enter my UserID.
                Screen orientation to allow for rotate, I can type a be easier in landscape mode.

                I already have AOL IM, Google Talk and Hand outs, Skype, and Skype for business; not to mention Text and Google Voice...

                What is the value here? Time will tell.

                  While it's just another IM client - does it
                  a) use the encryption of O365?
                  b) Danielle mentioned that it only shows (in email) what you received, it doesn't show what you sent? i.e. the whole text conversation? Also are each message it's own email, so if you're not viewing email in conversation view you have to look at each message individually?

                    I am not sure about a. But each message you receive is an individual email and not the whole conversation just the received part.

                      OK that makes it nearly useless! it's bad enough that they are each a separate email, but since it does not include your part of the conversation, how are you suppose to follow it when you read it later inside email?

                          It's pretty well useless but might be a good starting point for something useful. Or at least I hope so

                            This supports my "there is no reason to be using text" rants 🙂

                              Nope, it's both. Don't limit your search to only the received folder. Works like any IM to email system like this. I've got both sides of the conversation in my email.

                                So it does... interesting. Thanks for pointing that out. the messages I sent are in the sent folder...

                                    Actually, I'm loving Send. After all my complaints about texting and what a horrible idea it is, this seems to check all the boxes that people gave as reasons that they wanted to use an antiquated telephony technology instead of "that new fangled Internet thing."

                                    I've literally been told that people text because they can't handle subject lines, sometimes that was the only reason (those aren't required but people always ignored that.) This gives a text interface to the email system but still works for people with only email. It really does give texting to the people who want texting and email as the general carrier. Honestly, it is kind of awesome.

                                        Make a filter for it. Getting emails is the right thing, they just need to be managed properly.

                                            Do you use the conversation view as your default?
                                            I tend to really dislike the conversation view in Outlook - on my phone it works pretty well, but I seem to lose things when using the view in Outlook on my desktop.
