There is a project called pushd (https://github.com/rs/pushd) that you might be interested in. It supports GCM (Google Cloud Messaging) for Android and APNS (Apple Push Notification Service) and also Microsoft's push service.

pushd is a nodejs project that exposes an easy to use JSON/http interface. There is fantastic debugging/logging options.

EDIT: Microsoft has a service (Notification Hubs) that works on all devices which is free for 500 devices. Facebook also recently bought Parse.com which provide a similar service, although not free.
