I'm sure that's right, at least for the combination of phone and
network built-in features.

But the more I think about it, the more I suspect that such an
application /could/ be written for "smart" phones, like
Symbians.

And it could be secure too. Install a purpose-built application
onto the phone, and ask the phone user to configure a password.
Then the application would wait for a specially formatted SMS
with password and diversion details. This would see the phone
opening a supplementary services session (assuming support for
that in Symbian), and changing the diversions.

Maybe it's time I bought a Symbian phone and had a play with it.
