sms via icq to cellcom

[sara fink]

I found few options, but they are not linux based and I haven't tried them
yet.
1. msn messenger version 7 and up. msn messenger works under wine according
to some forums.
http://www.wine-reviews.net/wine-reviews/microsoft/msn-messenger-2008-and-2009-on-linux-with-wine.htmlwhich
requires winetricks that can be downloaded from here:

2. outlook mobile services which is fully integrated in outlook.
