I have only tested this on my Nokia 6600. But I see no reason why it should not work if your phone plays well with a Mac. This is how I send a SMS using my Powerbook.
# Enable Bluetooth on your phone and your mac
# Launch the Address Book application
# You now need to connect the phone and the AddressBook.app, do this by clicking on the bluetooth button thats present in the tool bar.
# Search for the person you want to SMS
# If the user has a mobile number listed.
# Control-Click on the person's mobile number, You should now receive a menu to "Send SMS"
# Type in your message and click on "Send"
Oh did i mention, you can also receive messages using this. Also dial a number, call detection and a lot of other nifty things. Ill leave that up to you.
Some things that need to be ironed out. Apple needs to enable users to send messages that are larger than 180 chars.
Beware
Beware :-) The addressbook application dosn't tell you whether the SMS has been sent to the net succesfully. At least on 10.3.9, and that makes it less than half as usable for me...
