I did at $jobs[-2] to a Nextel phone.  They've got an email gateway
setup that you just mail to phonenumber at mumble.nextel.com (can't
remember what the 'mumble' part was, maybe 'mobile') and it'll get to
the phone.  Check with the service provider in question, as I'm pretty
sure T-Mobile has something similar so probably they all do.


Baring that, some of them have some sort of web interface that you can
drive using LWP (or WWW::Mechanize, or what not).
