Supposedly you can get @replies sent to your cell phone by enabling SMS updates and “track”ing @. So, for me, I’d txt 40404 “track @mjmalone”
I haven’t tried it b/c I don’t have SMS updates enabled globally, and I’m too lazy to enabled SMS then go through all my friends and disable SMS updates for all of them individually. I wish there was an easier way to have just @replies sent to your phone, but from what I’ve heard ignoring feature requests from users is actually a twitter feature ;).
