All - I have an iphone 4, with no SIM, I am trying to use iMessage over Wifi, I did everything possible, trying to get the Message app to send an iMessage to my bro's Wifi iPad 2, but it just wont show at all. List of things I did:

1. Turn on iMessage in settings, verify that I have email address associated with it and a caller ID which is my @me.com account
2. My bro has IOS 5 installed and I have his apple ID

The thing that bugs me is, on my messages app, I dont see an option to enter an email address.. only phone numbers..

Under the subject line, I dont see the iMessage in background text at all.

Can anyone please point me to a tutorial on how to setup iMessage on my iPhone.. or help me out in this thread. I am sure a lot of people would find it usefull. Read all the other threads on iMessage but I couldnt find a solution.
