<<That's great but what about sending to different carriers? I'm guessing you have to know what carrier the customer you're sending a sms is on right?>>
No. Its your carrier not theirs. Just like you dont need to know what carrier someone is using to call them. Best is to use an aggregator if you're sending any volume of messages. The cheapest today wont necessarily be the cheapest tomorrow. I used a UK aggregator, and believe it or not it was faster from my US server than using an Australian or US service. But only marginally. Didn't make much difference in reality. We set up races between mobile phones and the xml packet based aggregator and several other combinations and the UK Aggregator beat all the other ways by a second or two seconds, even when it was routing the messages through a South African carrier to an Australian carrier to another Australian carrier to my phone. The full mobile phone number will find the device no matter where in the world it is, no matter what carrier they're connected to. But as far as ColdFusion is concerned, you'll either be making up an email containing the message and sending it using CFMail or using an XML packet and sending that by cfhttp. Depends on how your service is set up. Rest assured it wont be the most difficult ColdFusion task you've ever done.
