I did not try to use BlueTooth (in linux or otherwise), but gammu can send SMSs via USB. Does not work on all phones, so if you intend to buy one for this task (e.g. a very cheap one, always connected to your SMS server), first check if it works. It works for me (tm) with nokia 3100 and a cheap usb cable called KQ-U8A (with a prolific chipset/driver). Note that Nokia's official cable does not work (last time I checked). -- Didi ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
