FirstSpot currently does not have a SMS notification feature.

Part of the reason is we don't know a standard way to implement this feature internationally. Can you give us some feedback on what you have in mind?

We use a SMS gateway service that takes the text and the dest mobile number does the magic and send it.

What we have used is a email to sms provider and the info get sent as a email to the provider and they convert it to a sms text message. There are many different providers of this service..

www.sms2email.com - uk based companies

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_SMS_gateways - gives alot of info
