Do what I do. I've got a Nokia 6136 and bought a data cable (about £10
locally or about £7 on Ebay - but then there's postage so it works out about
the same). It connects the phone to the computer by USB and comes with the
necessary software on CD. You can then type out your SMS message on your
computer's full size keyboard, click "Send" and off it goes from the phone
as normal - and do lots of other things with it as well, like synchronising
your email address book with the mobiles address book etc.,m etc.
