Hi,

I know that a collegue here used a Siemens TC65 GSM Modem together with 
smstools and sms_client from ports to set up a sms paging system that 
works well. If you'd like I could ask him to send you more detailed info 
on how it was implemented.

I also believe that the engine in this modem is available in various 
packages, the TC65 is a standalone unit needing only the sim card and 
antenna to work.

It is connected over a usb to serial adapter and required no special 
drivers.
