Yahoo has revamped its Yahoo Mail email service and among the new features is a free text-messaging component. PC users will be able to use email, IM or SMS to reach their contacts, and can switch between the three methods, picking whichever happens to be most convenient at that moment. The text-messaging feature will be available in the U.S., Canada, India and Phillipines and will be rolled out over the next six weeks in the form of an upgrade.
