Alas all the publicity afforded by a mention on marsbard seems to have made
it slow to a crawl, so I haven't been able to try it yet...

Err, not sure why Jason's address came out - that was me...

And it's complete gibberish - I meant advertising / marketing spend for
iobox.com. Shame they never spent more on the WAP site... someone missed out
the 'm' from '.com' and so it's more than a little hard to use

And when I said I referred you (Ben) what I meant is that I put your number
in as the referrer.

Just put it down to temporary herbal supply-line difficulties ;-)

 OK, I signed up and referred you...

 I was amazed when I was in London yesterday at how much advertising there
 was some marketing spend...

  Have a look at www.iobox.com (also wap.iobox.com for those with such
  phones)...
 
  This site allows you to send SMS to Email and Email to SMS, and is v.v.
  fast, too.
 
  It includes 30 free messages as standard (40 if you include details of a
  referrer - er, me, please +447970 223366).

  I'd like to exchange SMS messages with someone. They have an orange
mobile
  phone, while I do not, and I don't want to sell out and get one of the
  bloody things, preferring as I do the relative safety of my workstation
 and
  its non-ionising radiation.
 
  What's the best solution?
 
  cheers,

I've found a number (http://aa.nu/faxtext/) that forwards them to an e-mail
address embedded in the message, which is pretty neat. 

It's still a bit awkward, though - I was hoping one of those unified
messaging/pretend mobile/voicemail/forwarding/call it what you will number
things like yac.com would handle it, but apparently they're 'working on it'.

Yo Ho!

Cor! a tekky puzzle I might actually have the answer to! -I'd better
leap in quick..
I think you can send an SMS style message from your computer 
to someone's mobile phone via an SMS 'gateway', but they can't reply
with one from their mobile to the gateway. :-)
