Giving 2 stars for basic function missing. Is there seriously a character limit for tablet sms? I've had my whole messages cut off, isn't this a basic function of any messaging service? Please fix.

Buggy and missing features Switched back to MightText, the only feature MightText was missing as MMS and with all the problems I've had with DeskSMS I've decided to switch back.
