Last week we mentioned SMSLink which lets you send text messages from your PC or Mac over Bluetooth. Turns out there is another game in town called Quicker SMS. From what I can gather Quicker SMS is PC only and works over your USB connection instead of Bluetooth. It has some cool features that I thought were interesting like giving you access to your BlackBerry address book. It is going for $9.95 on the developers website at this link.
Key features from the description:
- Send SMS to many friends from your address book by one click.
- Send timed SMS to friends in the future.
- Show new SMS notification dialog on PC desktop from your BlackBerry phone when it connects with Quicker SMS(OS 4.1 only).
- Show new SMS notification dialog on BlackBerry’s main screen(OS4.2+ only. This feature can be used without PC client program. It likes MsgShow、PeekaWho. When new SMS is coming, phone number, name(if phone number is in your contacts) and full SMS content will be showed in notification dialog.).
- Forward received SMS quickly(OS 4.1 only).
- Import all contacts information from your BlackBerry’s address book.
- Support ASCII and UCS-2 SMS.
- Divide long SMS into standard length and send them one by one.
- Wide support for newer BlackBerry models.

Now there is no difference between OS4.1 and OS4.2 version. All function works on both versions. CDMA users need more test before buying.
