APPENDIX B: Text Messaging
The Grid 2 allows you to send and receive SMS messages. There are different
methods of doing this.
We currently recommend using a mobile broadband modem, which is available
either as a PCMCIA card or as a USB device. Although designed for mobile
broadband, they are compatible with The Grid 2 and will send SMS messages over
the normal mobile phone network. If you buy an 'unlocked' version, you should be
able to use it with a standard pay-as-you-go SIM card. This is much cheaper than
using a broadband SIM card.
If you prefer to use a mobile phone, the best results are obtained with the Sony
Ericsson models. If your communication is Bluetooth enabled, you can pair a
Bluetooth mobile phone with your device. However, high spec phones are
generally too complex for The Grid 2 to handle.
