SMS was bought by Televideo a little over a year ago.  The new address
is:

550 E. Brokaw Rd.
San Jose, CA  95134(?)
(408) 954-8333

Televideo was running the remnants of SMS as a separate subsidiary 
for a while, then I think they merged it into the parent company.
I'm not sure of the current status of either the company or their 
products.  Everyone I knew there who has any sense has gone elsewhere.
