SAVE MONEY with RealNetwork:
* “iRealNetwork is a new service bringing SMS to your iPhone as you are used to but MUCH CHEAPER. With 8 EuroCents per SMS it is a great deal for national SMS and unbeatable for international SMS. A common rate for int. SMS is 39 EuroCent which is 500% of our rate.
It is in the nature of SMS services that we cannot support every destination in the world - therefore it is our policy to REFUND any Credit purchases which cannot be used because our service doesn’t support the destination country or network you require. We are supporting over 570 networks worldwide though. So try it out and save your money!”

* Text in the SEND or REPLY button will be GREEN when the iRealNetwork is Active
* Enable in Settings or by Long Pressing the SEND or REPLY button you can initiate a Quick Network Switch!
