fiddling with a com port from PHP seams an interesting approach, why
would you do that? the gnokii/smstools way of just calling binaries
that do the heavy lifting looks like the better approach to me. php is
really not a language optimised for wire level communication...

i used gnokii for monitoring quite successful out of nagios, perl and
php scripts and never had any problems with it.
