It looks like in addition to Twitter you are now able to add a Telecom New Zealand number to your Facebook profile.

After confirmation you are able to receive notifications, set schedules, select specific friends or pages to monitor for updates, and more.

I am trying to find out about the costs involved. It appears Telecom will send out a press release about this later this week - so you heard here first...

Confirmed: like Twitter, standard SMS fees apply to send, it's free to receive notifications...

It would appear that texts you send come out of your $10txt bundle, rather than being charged. been using this on CDMA for a few days now, facebook had a little popup message when i signed in, perhaps since I had an 027 number on my page.
