Re: SMS modem project in Elektor



Hi David,

Check www.tdc.co.uk for some GSM modems. They sell the Siemens MC35T modem<= BR> for =A3153. This is SIM free and does GPRS too. Has a standard RS232 interf= ace
and you can get all the documents off the web. There is a non GPRS model called TC35T but this is =A3172. This requires an antenna and serial cables=
etc. They do a starter kit for =A3215 which has all you need to get going.<= BR>
The modules you see in the Elektor article are expensive. I know, cos we bought one to do some testing in the States.

We use the MC35 embedded module in our automative telematics device. If you=
wanted to do your own embedded design, then the MC35 is only =A3130.

Regards
Dave...
