The way the SMS message work in XI is it uses the phone number and provider to create an email, so theoretically you can send a test email to an address like so, and it should function as an SMS text.

Example for Sprint:
<phone_number>@messaging.sprintpcs.com

You'd need to find what forwarding address your provider uses for this, and insert your cell #, and then test it to make sure it works. We'll probably add a field at some point so someone can insert an address like this manually if their provider isn't listed.
