WTA: SMS

Hey peeps,

I frequently sms my clients for product updates using my phone but typing few 500-600 character sms-es using my P990i is a pain. Is there anyway to sms using my computer and send it via my phone? I have tried searching for one but couldn't really find any softwares that does this. I'd appreciate if any of you forumers can help out. Cheers!

WMP54G and XP SP2

Personal equipment
Modem: D-link DSL-500T
Router: Linksys WRT54G with WMP54G v4.1
Firewall used: Norton 360

Problem details
First occurence of problem: 2nd day of usage
Problem frequency: Every one to two days
Problem description: My desktop pc which is using WMP54G has problems connecting to the WRT54G router. It can detect the wireless but it just won't connect to it. Keeps saying "Cannot associate to access point" whereas the signal is at 70% (Good). I have no issues connecting to the router using my laptop or my SE P990i. When I tried using Windows to access it, it also won't connect. Occasionally, it will connect and the connection is stable for a day or two. However, it will come to a sudden stop and just won't connect. I am using WPA-Personal with TKIF security. Even when i have disabled the security feature, my wireless PCI card won't connect. I have google and find that this is quite a common problem dating back to 2005 but there doesn't seem to be a solution to it. Do you guys have any idea? WMP54G users... do you have this problem?

Maxis 3G

Hey peeps...
Been wondering if you could access Maxis 3G network today?
I am using N6630 and since last night I had to switch my network mode from Dual Mode back to GSM mode to get signal coverage. Tried calling Maxis though... no one is picking up the @#$@#%@##$$@ call. Just left me on hold till they cut me off. Freaking Maxis.
I'm currently in Kepong area though... no idea if it only affects this area. I'd appreciate your feedback as I am trying to ascertain if it's my phone or network's problem...

Thanks
