Love the "we'll iMessage you a download link" feature on the web page. Are you using a service for this? Note it doesn't seem to work for me in Germany, it doesn't change the country code, it leaves it at +1 (instead of +49)...

It's a webservice I hacked together that sends iMessages from my old MacBook Pro. :-)
It was my understanding that German mobile numbers are written locally starting with 01? [1]
e.g. in Australia, my mobile number would be 040x-xxx-xxx. The international version is +61 40x-xxx-xxx. When you select Australia, it will show 04.
(OK, I now see how this could be confusing; my apologies.)

Phone numbers in Germany work the same way like you describe with Australia. Internationally you'd have +49 (area code without leading zero) (number) and within Germany you can use (area code with leading zero) (number).
Awesome. If you type in your number as if you were local, do you get the iMessage?
(Internally I add the international prefix. As you can imagine it took a while to find all of the local prefixes and create number masks!)
