And incoming alerts are one of the few tthings people would pay for on an SMS service though. I mean lets look at my mobile phonem I hit menu scross througha few icons and guess what theres a clock section, a clock section with an alarm. I'm sure most phones have the same, if i need a reminder I can do that for free rather than be charged for it. The only advantage it might have is obviously if we miss a tick BUT on the setup we have now this isnt a common occurance. Offering something in the hope it might cover costs even though its a service that isnt really needed isnt that smart as it will end up costing more to run than it generates (after all i'm assuming that access to an SMS gateway requires some kind of downpayment and then x amount per message)
