CallByText.com – Make Skype Calls Using SMS
Call By Text is a new service that will let you make mobile calls using Skype, even when an Internet connection is not available. That is possible because the whole system operates via text messages.
Using Call By Text, you simple send a SMS to the company with the number that you would like to call. The connection will be handled for you – Call By Text will use your Skype account to call the number you have texted.
In this way, you will get through to people even when a web-enabled computer is nowhere near. And a system like this one also ensures you will avoid the charges that traditionally go with roaming.
This service is free, and no software or hardware is required to get it to work. All you need is a mobile that can send and receive text messages. In other words: any phone that has been released in the past couple of years will do.
