Why Short Messaging Service
A way to extend communication between XO and mobile phone devices that does not have GPRS capability i.e. the only way possible to communicate with them is through text messages/voice calls.
It can be used as an information medium and for communication with others (e.g. Parents).
How does it work?
The main idea is to interface a modem/GSM AT compliant mobile phone with the School server. It hosts a SMS Gateway which can be accessed by XO through web browser.
SMS Server Tools are used for communicating with the phone and PlaySMS is used for hosting SMS Gateway.
