Texts while roaming

[filo]

I tend to travel a lot for work and currently I'm in Mexico. Now, of course I'm roaming, no big deal there. I'm okay with the charges for voice and data usage.

My question is, is there a way to send and receive text messages?? It's fairly annoying that I can only use texts 1 or 2 weeks of the month as I'm out of the country the other 2 or 3 weeks.

Any Ideas?

Even forwarding them to an e-mail address is good enough! But I doubt that is possible.

Thanks in advance.
