Electric Pocket is announcing a new version of its txtForward software tool, enabling users of Windows Mobile smartphones to automatically forward their text messages to any email address they specify. A BlackBerry version of txtForward was released this past Summer.

There are many reasons why someone may wish to forward text messages to an email address. txtForward is useful when changing to a new phone, enabling the user to avoid missing messages during the transition. It is also beneficial for those who prefer to focus on email as a messaging channel, or those who simply want the security of having text messages backed up with email - either on their computer or an online email account such as Gmail.

Electric Pocket is the developer of the popular FlipSide MP3 player and Ringo ringtone manager, plus a wide variety of fun and useful applications for all major smartphone platforms.

txtForward is available at txtForward.com for US$7.95.
