If you want to hook your computer up to a phone line, you can use TAP. There
are several programs like Notepage which send TAP messages to any TAP-capable
cellular or paging carrier, and Sprint PCS is TAP-capable.

The "phone number" email sends the email into our SMS
system. Your phone then receives the email as a SMS
message.

Yeah, NotePage's software is good it has failover and can send using TAP, SNPP,
WCTP or SMTP really reliable. There is a free trial on their website
