Some cell providers support email to the number at provider.com or some
variation thereon (for example T-mobile's 1npanxxxxxx at tmomail.net, and
Nextel had something similar).  Usually somewhere on the provider's
web presence they'll have instructions how to do this (look on the
sections on SMS or text messaging).
