Sprint today announced a way for its mobile subscribers to send text messages to landline users. Customers do not need to sign up for any additional service or do anything different. They simply send a text messages as they normally would, and if it is sent to a landline number the recipients phone will ring and text is read as voice message. Landline recipients can then choose to respond with pre-definied text messages or a voice message. Text to Landline is available to all subscribers with two-way messaging enabled phones.

'Cause I'd be a terror if i could shake up my sister with texts of "I'm in the house" or "Shall we play a game?". Muahahahahahahaha!
This has been around since November
Text to landline from Sprint has been around since November. It is a great service and costs no more than a normal text (10 cents) if you are not part of a text message plan.
