Free SMS gateway ? Quite difficult.

I understand that its possible to send a SMS from your PC through your mobile by using SMPP.

Theres SMSJunction.
Recently came across fastalerts but it seems its brand new so dont know if its reliable.

I'm a big fan of http://www.clickatell.com/. They give you some free credits for testing, however you will have to pay to send 'live' text messages though.

I don't think you will find a completely free solution anywhere, if you do let us all know!
