Can you send an SMS from your phone through your computer?

[Ridlah]

I use to have a nokia n97 mini and once time while i plugged it in for a charge I got a text message but the it came up as a notification on my computer screen, After clicking on this notification i was able to send a reply using my keyboard. I was wondering if any desktop program windows 8 application exists that lets me send messages through from a windows phone through a computer.

Unfortunately, one of Windows Phone's biggest drawbacks are the dearth of bluetooth profiles. You need a phone with the MAP profile to do this.

If you are on Verizon, you can text through your computer, phone, or tablet by activating Verizon Messages on your account.

The messages appear on all devices simultaneously. The webapp is not that convenient since it logs you out of your Verizon account eachtime you close your browser. The iPad app works great.
