Default SMS Popup Puts Text Messages All Up In Your Face

http://lifehacker.com/5719572/sms-p...easy-on-android

"Android only: SMS Popup gives you the best of both smartphone worlds-the immediacy of the iPhone's pop-up SMS notifications, but with the utility of being able to reply with preset messages, your voice, or text, all from a small window."

This is defiantly something that I do not miss from my Windows Mobile days. I love how Android handles notifications. I get a noise and an icon then I can deal with said notification at any time i choose. For many though, being able to quickly read and respond to a SMS message without leaving the program you are currently end would be a very welcome feature. Enter SMS Popup, a small program that will display a popup window with any new SMS messages you receive and three customizable buttons that allow to you deal with the message. Your options include quick reply, reply, close, delete, or speech-to-text, which will actually read your message to you. The quick reply option will allow you to setup any number of preset text strings to instantly reply back with. Seems like this could be one of those "just can't live without it" programs. Anyone tried it?

Among the first things I searched for. It's very customisable, and has reminder alerts (which I like).

I've been using this since the first day I bought my Incredible. I agree this is a "just can't live without it" program.
