I skipped the 18F and 24F parts and jumped from Assembler on the PIC16
to C on the PIC32.
If the OP wants to use SMS I would definitely recommend doing it in C
rather than assembler, and the PIC16 Parts are not the best platform
for C, hence my jump to PIC32. BUT - Finding example code and
information on the PIC32 is difficult compared to the PIC16.
