Most phone companies have an e-mail interface to SMS. It usually
consists of the number @att.net or something similar.

You need to find the interface for their mobile company and their number
then use JavaMail to send the message, keeping it under the number of
characters limit.

The problem with the email SMS interfaces is you have to know who the carrier is of the mobile number in order to construct the email address and get it to work, and the reliability if this approach is questionable as the carriers do not endorse this.

StrikeIron provides an SMS API (SOAP or REST) that supports 500+ carriers in over 250 countries, and all you have to do is supply the mobile number and message as parameters in order to invoke the service, the carrier does not need to be known, and the sms alert or notification is delivered.

It is easy to use with NetBeans (some other StrikeIron services are included as part of the IDE) - just a line of code or two. However, it is a commercial service.
