All of these are good, I have tried doing the conversions and everything
I can write the link in the browser and Greek chars will appear alright I am using asp and msxml in order to post data to kannel. Kannel will not understand it Maybe this is my problem. Has anybody tried to send with asp?

Sending SMS's has a cost so why reduce the size to 70 when you can have the full 160 chars with 7bit ... any how ... when it comes to concept you are right ...
