I’d love to experiment with it, yes.
If you give me your SMS number, I’ll give it a try. (most carriers have an email way to send text messages – something like send an email to 9054344343@rogers.com and when Rogers receives the message they send the text. Does your carrier have such a service?
I’ve looked into text gateways before – they are VERY expensive, but this email solution seems like an easy solution.
