- Sure have! Since the GSM system (GSM = Global System for Mobile communication)

- sounds pretty strange to those of you that are running other systems.

- SMS is a service, as mentioned, that lets you send a message to a
- mobile phone using GSM and supporting SMS. And there is a program
- for the Amiga that lets you send SMS messages to a phone. It is written
- by a Swede and, as far as I know, in its present form, only supports
- the Swedish phone companies. I guess this is easy to reconfigure though!
-
- As far as I know, the program hasn't been put on any public InterNet
- areas, but you could try and send a mail to the author of the
- program: larsl@tripnet.se
-
- I haven't tried this address myself, but let me know if it is wrong!
-
- Good luck!
