Re: [Users] Mbuni vs. http://www.nowmms.com/
Hi, Mika [EMAIL PROTECTED]! Althougth not sure about it, I don't think Mbuni can directly support GPRS connection currently through serial line. I am in search of this for quite for a while, and as you mentioned, only NowSMS's commercial product meets my need, and it is too expensive. But my partner have figured it out that by programming KJava or Symbian applicatons running on KJava/Symbian enabled mobiles, it is possible to archieve this goal. Since I am not familiar with KJava and Symbian, I have not digged into it. Hope it helps. 2005-11-2802:39:08 Hi! I want to send and receive MMS-messages with a mobile phone connected to serial/USB of Debian server. I has configured Kannel to work as SMS-server (send and receive) and as WAP-gateway (GSM-modem not GPRS, is it possible to use WAP-GPRS??) by a phone connected to serial port. I know that MMS is different technology than SMS, but I want that my MMS-server can work as much as possible same way like my SMS-server works to end-user. Is it possible any level? Can Mbuni do all things that http://www.nowmms.com/whatisnowsms.htm can do? Especially is this http://www.nowmms.com/documentation/ProductDocumentation/mms_notifications_and_content/Connecting_to_operator_MMSC.htm#UsingGPRS possible with Mbuni? Is Gsm-modem too slow to do MMS in real situation? I am building a mobile learning environment to MMS with my students with WWW-environment (PhP+MySql). Real MMS-gateways are so expencive to hire, so I must use some simple solution I can build with one phone+server+mbuni.

Re: [Users] Mbuni vs. http://www.nowmms.com/
To clarify the situation: Mbuni is a fully IP application. It does not talk to GPRS modems at all, although of course once you have established a TCP/IP connection via the GPRS modem, there is no reason why Mbuni should not speak to the MMSC on the other side via that connection.

You can achieve GPRS connections at the IP layer either under Windows with standard dialups connections, or under Linux with the PPP suite. Linux is advantaging in that you will be able to capture traffic on these connections. The hard part is not the PPP / IP connection (albeit it's harder to do it in Java with free tools), but the WAP traffic for which -- AFAICT -- there's no client class. I suppose Kannel would have some of the code one needs. If you're goal is that a phone downloads a MMS from Mbuni, then you should consider using a GPRS connection on the phone side only, and using a standard Internet connection for Mbuni. -- Loïc Minier [EMAIL PROTECTED] What do we want?
