Can any one clearly explain me some facts about SMS
1)What is the key factor or the technology behind the SMS ???
2)I also puzzled how some web sites where providing free sms services 😕.

    There something called SMS server, with GPRS modem and a data plan, it works like a mobile, this GPRS modem is connected with a software that connecting the web application you've used to send the SMS and the GPRS modem driver, this GPRS modem is like th Fax modem but has a SIM card or it can be a cellular phone connected to the PC both are okay, and the rest is like how mobiles work sending to base station and so on, it's all about the software inside.
