Hi All

To send out SMS from PC, generally, there are 2 methods:

1. PC connects to a mobile aggregator, using SMPP or SOAP
2. PC connects to GSM modem, using SMS API such as SMS Gateway Development Kit (http://www.mobitek-system.com/SMS_Gateway/SMS_Gateway.html)

Pro & Con of using Method 1
Pro: mask sender ID, premium billing
Con: expensive

Pro & Con of using Method 2
Pro: easy to use, rapid development, reduce time to market
Con: limited to Windows

Hope my guide helps!
