Hi Shamil:

I do not know of any specific product but it does seem that your suggestion is a good one. All the needed components are nicely bundled through the link you have provided. Now the pricing may be prohibitive as just getting a completed solution may be expensive.

If you want to roll your own system you will have to be ready for a lot more work. I understand the Skype API supports SMS messaging and if Skype is installed, it can be used to support other applications running on the same computer. Below is one link I found on how to use the Skype4Py API:

Good luck

 Hi All --

Do you use any free/inexpensive worldwide SMS messaging API in your customers applications you can recommend?
I have to test SMS messaging API for my customer application by sending a few SMS messages and I'm currently planning to try TWILIO: http://www.twilio.com/sms/api

Thank you.
