Help Newb Q: Using Groups w Text Msgs

[obiwan81]

I checked a similar thread but wasn't satisfied with the answers there. I just bought a Moment with 2.1 loaded. I'd like to know if the contacts program or the texting app that came loaded on the phone have a way to send text messages to groups.

(Maybe this is a Google question.) I'm using Gmail contacts, which load into the phone fine, but I can't locate (in the phone) the groups I've set up. (As if they don't survive the sync). So the only way to send txt to multiple recipients is to enter each manually. Can get tedious for large lists.

Suggestions, tips, apps?

Thank you.

I think I may have found an answer on the Samsung website, where it was posted in the FAQs that the phone doesn't support "caller groups". Say it isn't so.

Any apps or workarounds?

I think you can do group messages with Handcent.
