Hi Andy and Stuart

SMS gateways are spread all over.
Here's a list with some of them:

As I understand it , email/SMS gateways are a function of your phone 
company.   If they support it, you just send an email to a special
address 
of phonenumber at your.telco.sms.server.com with the text in the body of
the 
email. The telco handles the rest.

If they don't provide this service then you are basically SOOL.

PNGs government controlled monopoly mobile telco of course doesn't
provide 
this service so I have no direct experience  with it. :-(
