Unfortunately, not at present. That was scheduled for this summer, until everyone's schedule got thrown all over. It's still on the development list though. |

In my case I use ATT wireless, so I can send an email to my phone number 512-111-2222@mms.att.net and within a minute or so it appears on my cell phone as a text. To do this yourself 1) search internet for Email to Text gateway sprint (replace sprint with your cell carrier) and look for the email address 2) Create an email template to be triggered on new booking, and just plop the email address with your phone number into the to: field |

Messages are sometimes delayed for hours...and often never received. I played with it last year and gave up. You are better off waiting for OR to implement a true text based notification system. |
