How can I send SMS from my PC using my Android Phone (Galaxy S3)

Question

I've been a long-time Nokia fan, but finally succumbed to the Samsung Galaxy S3's amazing screen, & Android's Open community.

One feature I use a lot (about a hundred times a day...) is Nokia PC Suite's ability to send SMS via the phone. It:

Uses my phone's contact list.
Notifies me when I get an sms.
Allows me to send SMS using my PC's keyboard.
Essentially turning SMS into just another IM medium I use on the PC.

How will I do this with the Samsung Galaxy S3 + Windows 7?

Use Airdroid. It gives SMS and much more. And it is web based so you don't need to install a client on your machine.

you don't need any extra apps or software as Samsung has this already covered. Samsung kies air is capable of doing all this & more using WiFi. It only works for Samsung devices tho. :))

The simplest solution I have found is DeskSMS, by Clockworkmod. I believe it's 4.99$ per year. It allows you to SMS using a Google Chrome extension, or even by email. I haven't tried the Google Chat relay option, I disabled it.

Since it uses the internet, it will work over 3G or any WiFi, not just a home LAN or usb like some other solutions.

PiceaHub works fine. Send SMS, drag and drop videos and music to your Android from Youtube etc.
