Overview
--------
  Oxygen SMS Gateway allows uninterruptable communication between people 
  regardless of the service used. Current version supports three services: 
  SMS, e-mail and ICQ. It means that people having at least one of these
  services can communicate with each other. 
  The main advantage of Oxygen SMS Gateway over all other email-sms gating 
  services is that the Oxygen SMS Gateway is bidirectional. You can send SMS to 
  e-mail address, e-mail message to ICQ UIN and vice versa. Then you can
  receive the answer, reply to this answer and so on.
  Trial version restrictions:
   - Maximum 10 users can be handled;
   - Each outgoing SMS has 'www.oxygensoftware.com' text at the beginning.
   - Each outgoing ICQ has 'www.oxygensoftware.com' text at the beginning.
   - Each outgoing e-mail has 'This message was sent by UNREGISTERED version
     of Oxygen SMS Gateway' text as the subject.

Usage example
-------------
  John and Bruce are colleagues. They need to be permanently  on-line. Each has
  e-mail account in their company office and a GSM phone. John writes urgent
  e-mail to Bruce, but he doesn't know that Bruce just went away to the
  business trip. No problem. Oxygen SMS Gateway leaves this message in the
  Bruce's mailbox and duplicates it to Bruce's  GSM phone using SMS service.
  Bruce receives this message in about 5-10 seconds and, if the message 
  requires immediate response, replies using either his phone or
  Oxygen SMS Manager, the most powerful and convenient tool to organize fully 
  functional mail system based on SMS messages in your mobile phone. 
  Oxygen SMS Gateway receives the Bruce's reply and redirects it to John's e-mail.
  Note that Oxygen SMS Gateway can duplicate this message to John's mobile phone 
  too if needed.
