For a variety of reasons that boil down to a combination of convenience and economy and having a multi-line cellphone plan, i've ended up with a cellphone plan that includes way more text messages available than i would ordinarily use in a month. i know fedex/ups will optionally update you on a package's progress via SMS. What other potentially useful SMS functionality is out there?

One I'm fond of is, Discover (the credit card) lets you set up rules relating to payments, and they send you a text message whenever a payment breaks those rules. So, like, I get a text message Every Single Time there's a charge of above $FOO on my card, period, whether it looks "suspicious" or not.
