If you want this cheap you can use a DAU-9P cable connect to a Nokia
5110/6110/6150 and use the published AT commands for it of course
there are better high end models you can use with a MMS and GPRS
feature. I have implemented a cheap solution on my lab here to send
out notification signals after a microscope scan is done and also send
the JPEG images to email addresses. You have to use the older version
of serial libraries to hardcode the fone initialization command like
AT+CMGF=1 (text mode),AT+CMGS="number" the message. Look for the
website by the European ETSI for exact technical specifications of the
GSM commands. Altenatively you can use your windows Modem query for
valid AT commands and save the log files to a text file. And by the
way LabVIEW XP7 has many added features in the TCP/IP function pallete
for email and HTML handling.
