Hi everyone,
I am new to this site so I'm not sure if this thread has been posted before. If so, please redirect me to it.
I have my droid x for half a year now. I heard from someone in verizon that using apps like AIM count as text messaging. Since I don't have unlimited texting nor do I plan on getting on any time in the near future, I have never used AIM or any similar apps to this day.
However, I just saw on yahoo answer that AIM and QQ don't count as texting and don't go into my texting limit.
Is this true? I really want to chat with my friends anywhere without having to be charged extra.
Thanks in advance and happy new year.

No sir, they just use data, but don't count for texts.
