Your best bet is to go for some of the older stuff rather than newer
modules costing £100+.
I bought from http://cheapbuyuk.co.uk/gsm/
They sell refurbished modules for £20 each. At that price, they're cheap
enough to be used in loads of electronic projects. I've already GSM enabled
my home alarm system and central heating units! :D
Another alternative is to use an old mobile phone, but I found that these
are not so reliable.

If you are looking for a Computer+GSM kinda setup, go for an used GSM
phone having IR/USB/serial interface.
