Text Messaging for Schedule Changes

I know there is a way to get a text message for each itinerary. But, I have to set it up each time. Is there a way to set it up in my preferences (or something like that), so that I get notified of any changes?

Thanks!

Not that I've seen.

They have started making automated phone calls in the event of delays; ideally you'd give your cell phone number as your contact number when you book.

This seems like something most airlines should be able to do a better job with.

I've been using tripit.com, which is a really nicely done service and their pro version includes configurable SMS alerts for checkin reminders, notification of delays, gate assignments and changes, and flight arrivals. It also includes a frequent flyer/hotel/car program point tracker. There are probably other services out there as well.
