As a side project, I'd like to investigate sending some notifications to sales reps via text message. Currently, we send emails.

Any recommendations for a source/api to retrieve the carrier for a given number? I've seen a couple via Google but wondering if anyone has real-world experience with this.

It has to be a VERY low (or no) cost implementation - at least for now. No commercial products.

Thanks.
