Event Management Attendee Check In (Helen Brosnan Oct. 2013)
Provides the ability to send a TEXT from a QB Application provided the Carrier of the phone number is known.  This works but I am hoping there are plans to make texting a standard QB feature and/or that someone knows a way to Text from within an application when the carrier is not known.

I think you can do this if you have the appropriate protocol handler registered on your device:

Hey do me a favor and test this for me from your mobile device.
  1. Create a new record entering a mobile phone number, and message.
  2. Save the Record
  3. Press the Blue button to attempt to send the SMS message 
  4. Edit the record to record the outcome

Don't try it if you don't want your phone number publicly recorded. This is a five minute effort.
