Looking for an SMS gizmo. 7

[itsmoked]

Hi all,

I'm looking for a handful of small battery powered devices that when a contact is closed or a button is pushed, submits a couple of text messages to a some mail server via WiFi so several people receive them on their phones.

I'd need to be able to MAC them thru the filter white-list of a local wireless router to get them onto the web, and point them onto a mail server for submitting, and pile-in the 4 or so send-to addresses.

Looking for any of these you folks know of and what the heck these might be called so I can search effectively for them.





I can hear the Arduino hacks cracking their knuckles already.

Wow.. You guys have just given me several evenings of work/entertainment.

IR I don't know how you dig this stuff up. You must have a wetware cranial tap or something.

Have to give credit to VE1BLL, since he led the way. I have Amazon Prime, so I can buy the programmable gizmo, but you can get a 30 day trial of Prime that will allow you to buy two of them. If you want more, though, you'll have to create additional accounts, but you didn't hear that from me ;-)

TTFN (ta ta for now)
I can do absolutely anything. I'm an expert!

This thread is certainly enlightening. I had no idea that some of these 'gizmos' had even been invented yet.

I hereby bestow my 'Thread of the Month' award.

I would agree VE1BLL! I'd spray out a bunch more Little Pink Stars if I could. A really interesting bunch of links.
