I haven't even begun to scratch the surface of all that you can do using MMAP and SMAP to send SMS messages with XML. The MMAP protocol supports not only this type of simple immediate message, but also sessions -- and even peer-to-peer connections -- in which both parties exchange information asynchronously within a single session. Between all of the capabilities that are built into MMAP, and the fact that it is designed to prevent interoperability problems, you'll find that it allows you to build sophisticated applications based on SMS.
