SMS Pages to Cingular Cell Phone

[Michael Halligan]

Fear.. Cingular has a maximum message size that is 1/3 of what AT&T wireless's
was, so if you send 900 bytes in an e-mail, it will page you 3 times, each containing
1/3 of the message. It was painful enough that we had to switch our on-call guys to
tmobile

ATT-WS has a product called Enterprise Paging that I am using to send out 
SMS via TAP/SNPP phone number (ld call) (9.95/mo).  I use sendpage from 
the Hylafax package.

According to the page - this product info will be folded into Cingular.com 
on April 26th.
