hey guys, instead of paying for real sms gateway during development,
Is is possible to use mobile emulators to send SMS to service running on localhost?

How does the sms gateway work? Just get an API from them and program to that.

BTW: I'm using just gnokii connecting to a couple of gsm modems. Much cheaper per message. It's low volume though. We're only sending about 2-3000 sms per day.

hey dkk, does gnokii works on windows 7?

I checked GSM modem, they're quite expensive.
Because I just want to development and test the app in local computer.

Win7, yes. For development, just use your handphone. Connect the cable to your computer. The main point of something like gnokii is to make it easy to swap in a different phone/modem without changing your code.

But gnokii does not regconize the phone i think.

Below is the output when i use --identify.
Really appreciate your help on this, Thanks!!

looks like it can't open COM8.

try Device Manager-Modem-Diags-Query Modem

if ok, you can use Putty + Tutorial: Sending SMS

Checked the control panel, found that it is COM9.
--identify command works now, but SMS does not. rclxub.gif rclxub.gif

Below is the result from Query Modem.
