No, you have to have the US country code.  I tried it both ways and 
only the one the the 1 works.  And from looking at mymobile.aol.com, it 
looks as if AIM and AOL automatically add the +1 for you.  But either 
way, thanks!  Got it working.  But getting the MSN one to work would be 
helpful for the people who don't use AIM and use Fire.  Also, a menu 
option with similar to the one on the mymobile.aol.com would be handy.  
Say a menu option labeled "AIM to Mobile Text" and when you opened it 
up, there appears a window with say a pull down menu for country codes, 
and then a spot of area codes and phone numbers and it automatically 
opens a IM window with the  +(yada yada yada).  This might help clear a 
lot of confusion, because as y'all are well aware, I for one wasn't 
aware of this feature in AIM.  I only knew of the one on MSN where you 
have a pref to put in your mobile number, and people can just SMS you 
by right clicking on your name or chosing "Send Message to Mobile 
Device" in the menus.
