I'm not sure of any direct ones, though I wouldnt be surprised if theres some on AmiNet... but you can do it indirectly. One way is with an AIM (AOL IM) client, several of which exist for Amiga. I dont know how (or if) it works in Europe, but in the US and Canada you can sent an IM to +1xxxxxxxxxx (the "+" character followed by 1 and the area code and number, no dashes or other punctuation) and it will send the message as an SMS message to the number.

There are some web based SMS tools too I think.


which ones on aminet,,do they work

@ DBAlex....no go!
