You realise the purpose of the device is to notify them if services go down, right? How are you going to use your remote service when there's no net access?

We've just been down this track at work.
Until now we have been using the X.25 network to send out SMS alerts, but yesterday we received a nice little cellphone black box with a serial interface, you can use it to send and receive SMS messages and you talk to it using modem AT type commands.
It's looking like a pretty good, and cheaper solution, and it will allow us to do more.
I can't remember the brand/model off the top of my head, but I can look on Monday if people want to know. From memory the unit costs $700 to buy and then there is just the standard cost of sending SMS messages.
