I am really not good at typing SMS on the small keyboard of my Samsung smartphone.

Would it be possible that I create on my PC (Win 7) a text document and then transfer it to my Smartphone so that I can send it from here?

If you have Android you could use Airdroid.

You can remote control your phone and also copy text from your PC to the phone.

You can send SMS's from skype if you buy skype credit.

They'll show as coming from your mobile # as well if you set it up to do so (which involves receiving an sms to confirm).

Yes Miles of Smiles you are right..

I have Skype Credit to make phone calls and send SMS

However the receiver on SMS cannot reply as he or she does not know the original sender

It looks as if this was the solution I was looking for and I am going to try it

No idea whether this applies to you.

If you are in Thailand an have an AIS SIM (1-2-call) you can use their eService:

https://aiseservice.ais.co.th/eServiceWeb/

(click on "EN")

After successful login you can send SMS directly through this web interface.

Guess other providers have similar services?

What is the cost to send an SMS

and can you also receive an SMS on the web ?

If you have MyPhoneExplorer which I use for backing up/sync all by stuff with Outlook/Calender/Phonebook/SMS messages it will also do what the o/p wants.

Cost? Within AIS 1 Baht for instant sent SMS and 2 Baht for SMS send on schedule.

Other networks 3 Baht.

(within Thailand, no idea whether you can send SMS overseas via web, seems not)

No, you can not receive SMS on the web. Just sending.

This could provide me the easiest solution : in fact I need it to send SMS from my PC to only one mobile tel nr in Indonesia and make sure the receiver can reply to my mobile tel nr.

However when checking following website from Skype

http://www.skype.com/en/features/caller-identification/

...I cannot find the "Caller ID" tab

I also do not find in my Skype window the way to "Manage Features" indicated in "How do I set up caller identification using my Skype Number?"

I have latest Skype version...
