1,000 texts/hr via landline SMS modem

I was having a chat with Paul at NTS just now by email — turns out he’s sensibly sat working away in his local pub on GPRS.  Smart man!

I asked him if he had any news going on and he had this to say:

We have been doing some testing about how many messages an hour can be sent via Landline SMS. With the BT service in the UK you can send around a thousand an hour with a single Landline SMS modem.

That’s sehr nifty!  It’s one of these things you need (left) an SMS modem.

They’ve also got an SDK for developers wishing to integrate with their own applications — more info here, plus they’ve got drivers for MAC OSX & Linux 2.4 & 2.6.

If you’ve got an application that needs SMS via Landline modem, talk to Paul.
