There is a new GSM UCM module on the Comfort Home Controls website. This
takes any valid GSM SIM and provides a mobile line to Comfort *in
addition* to the fixed landline. This enables SMS messages to be sent on
alarm conditions (and also allows SMS messages coming IN to comfort to
control HA etc.)

I don't know about DTMF signalling.

One thought occurred to me, - although Comfort only directly supports
one attached landline, wouldn't it be easy enough to use comforts relay
outputs to switch between several lines if multiple lines were
available?...
