That is not a stupid idea and I have often wished that it was possible. Having an LCD screen to read the messages should not be a problem, some phones already have them for caller ID but whether they could be used for text messaging is something I wouldn't know.

just a note for u...
Recently ICQ has changed its sms network recently... Alot of us who use icq to send sms, it wouldn't work.. and i just try on the other day, still doesn't work... so maybe we might force to use cellphone --> cellphone for the moment then
