A feature I really like in Texty is the Desktop Notifications.

Like Growl, but also lets you click reply and respond to the SMS as well.

It's just easy and works.

With the suggested combination, it is just as easy. When you receive a SMS, it will be notified on the desktop as any other IM you receive. Simply typing your response in the text input, will reply to the last received SMS.

I really like the UI of texty, e.g. threaded conversations. That is, as far as i know, not possible with GTalkSMS.

Overall, any seamless interaction with my phone from my desktop is greatly appreciated.
