There are at least two ways this can be done. There are hardware devices you
can use to send the SMS messages directly. We evaluated a Siemens TC35. And
there are on-line services. You save your messages to a text file and upload
the file to the service, which sends to the phones for you. We use I-Touch
(
www.itouch.ie). We opted for the on-line service, but if I remember
correctly that was because it was the best match to our customers' needs,
not because of any problem with the hardware device. As far as I can
remember, the hardware device worked well too.

The spammers and script-kiddies have succeeded in making it impossible for
me to use a real e-mail address in public newsgroups. E-mail replies to
this post will be deleted without being read. Any e-mail claiming to be
from brenreyn at indigo dot ie that is not digitally signed by me with a
GlobalSign digital certificate is a forgery and should be deleted without
being read. Follow-up questions should in general be posted to the
newsgroup, but if you have a good reason to send me e-mail, you'll find
a useable e-mail address at the URL above.
