You can use a program such as <a href="http://wammu.eu/smsd/">http://wammu.eu/smsd/</a> we have it connected to a MySQL database so you just dump messages into the db and Gammu picks it up. Most cheap mobile plans include unlimited SMSs now.</div>2) <a href="http://www.message-media.com.au">http://www.message-media.com.au</a><div><br></div><div>Option 1) is harder but cheaper if you are doing lots of SMSs.</div><div>2) is easy and a bit more expensive</div><div><br></div><div>Both work well.</div><div><br><div apple-content-edited="true">
