You meant receive, send or manage them?

For sending I can see several ways to achieve it. You can:

a) Send your self the SMS with your own modem and the proper program

b) Use your cell-phone provider SMS gateway (no additional equipment 
needed)

c) Use a third-party service (like [1]) but if you don't want 
intermediates you can jump this one :-)

I had b) setup for my UPS alerts and works like a charm (it was very easy 
to setup deploy) but if you need to send bulk SMS maybe a) or c) are the 
most suitable options.
