![]() In that respect, iMessage routing is more reliable, although WP7's Messaging client is a bit more flexible in that it supports WLM/FB and SMS/MMS instead of just iMessage and MMS. That's a huge difference in usability/experience. Any other device, it can reliable send a text message instead (and will). iMessage doesn't need to do this, cause it's on all apple devices, anyways. The whole "will send to the best place" simply doesn't work with the WP7 client unless it picks FB where it may be decently reliable for the reason above, because the phone cannot predict how people are using their devices. The only thing that may save you is if they're logged into Facebook, since the chances of an Android/iOS user having Facebook/Facebook Messenger installed is very high compared to WLM. their PC is logged in, but they're at the mall). If they have it logged into their Desktop, but have no WLM client on their PC, you run the risk of the phone prioritizing the IM service and sending the message to a location where the person won't even recieve it (i.e. WLM: Message goes only to where WLM is logged in. If the person doens't have an iPhone, iMessage knows because it checks the Number against Apple's database when you put it in, and it will send it as a text instead (easy to see this happening, especially on an iTouch). iMessage is tied to both AppleID and Phone Numbers. IMessage: Message goes to their Mac, iPhone, iPod Touch, iPad, MacBook.
