So you basically want an SMS or IM callback app right?

One way to do this would be send an email to an address like
(callmeback at domain.com) and have a cronjob query/pop this email address for
your specific message and then when it finds it have it create a .call file
to call you and connect you to whatever context you setup, etc.  Shouldn't
be very hard at all.  This would allow for emails and I'm pretty sure every
cell can send an email.

As for IM/AIM I'd just find a Perl AIM package (quick google returned:
http://search.cpan.org/~aryeh/Net-AIM-1.22/AIM.pm) and again it same thing,
if it gets a IM with the correct details in it, simply create a .call file
to call your cell. Again this too should be pretty easy to setup.

Here's the link to creating .call files:
