Yes...you got it Rick Another decision point for you is this...
Are you intending on just sending out texts? or also receiving? If receiving is that part of a "conversation" (i.e. they send you a start code, you ask a question, they provide an answer and so on). If you are looking at that then you need the equivalent of SMS session management. That functionality is built in to the CF SMS gateway and relies on I believe the SNDP/SNPP protocol (sorry I probably butchered that acronym). You can write your own session management and use the HTTP method - I have done so and it wasn't all that bad. IF all you are doing is sending out and not expecting a response - go HTTP or even simpler as some have mentioned - ye olde e-mail a text message route (not sure all carrier allow that anymore and knowing what carrier matters). Hope that helps you navigate it all a bit better - I know I could have used some help when I dove in a few years back ;-) Cheers *Bryan Stevenson*B.Comm.
