3g modems are quite cheap and can send sms.

All of them AFAIK. Huawei is one of the most popular ones: http://www.3gmodem.com.hk/Huawei.html Just double check on the forums that your linux knows how to talk to them. Some models have integrated storage which includes windows drivers and need a special application to send them "start acting normally, I don't need that crap" message.
