Windows 10 and text messages

Does anyone know if Windows 10 will link with your cell phone? It would be nice to receive text messages.

I think this was mentioned somewhere (in development/up for consideration/soon...). It'll be like what Apple has now probably.

There's an existing UserVoice thread requesting this feature. It's been acknowledged, but who knows if we'll see it by RTM. https://windows.uservoice.com/forum...e-capabilities-on-windows-10-send-receive-cal

Judging on the fact that the upcoming Lumia 940 and 940 XL have that capability. It's certain that text messaging on PCs will come in Windows 10 update 1, in fall

Please post a source of Microsoft confirming such a thing or you are spreading rumors as facts.

It was in one of Mary Jo Foley's sources I heard

Though Foley is generally a reliable source of leaks, its still a rumor, not a good idea to spread those as confirmed
