SMS Text Messaging

[Jeff Bull <Jeff.Bull@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,
        does anyone have a successful implementation of SMS text messaging
from an AS/400 / iSeries?
I do not want to pass the messages to an intermediary like BT, Vodaphone etc
- I am doing that already
and they are just too unreliable for critical messages.  Surely some
software exists somewhere that would
enable my iSeries to send SMS transactions direct to mobiles/pagers via a
modem?  I have an Intel blade
in my iSeries, so at a pinch, even a Windoze application would be an option.
