Hi!

I was wondering is it possible to use a Sony Ericsson W 580i phone as a
modem for sending sms?


I havent used a Sony Ericsson but rather a Nokia.
However you can setup the modem group and smsc group as shown in the user guide.
To be sure the phone can be used, do this:
Connect the phone to the computer and as root do this
r...@your-computer#dmesg|grep -i "Sony"
r...@your-computer#tail -n30 /var/log/messages|grep -i "Sony"

You must see a link to the device file /dev/ttyACM0 or something similar which shows connection to your phone. Configure kannel accordingly to use the device file that points to your phone. Read the user manual on configuring group=modems group=smsc for using phones as virtual smsc.
