Thank you sales, but I believe you may have missed the point in that it is NOT a wireless carrier, it is a PSTN wired system with SMS enabled.
I can see how in using the Modem a conection into the wireless carriers can be made but it does not necessarily mean the correct means of using the BT SMS allowance is being used.
I have had no luck identifying what standard is in use...so which do you choose to 'ACT' like a Wired SMS phone ?

BT in the UK package upto 200 SMS messages per month with some of their price plans. To use this free service you need a suitable TEXT enabled phone - all are DECT SMS phones.

I don't have one and don't wish to buy one but would really like the option to SMS from my Laptop modem. Apart from anything else it is far easier than using a phone keypad.

Does ANYONE know what protocol BT are using to enable this SMS over PSTN and of course whether NotePage can help in this regard ?
