Connecting Windows Mobile to server

Post by LostDreamer »

Hey all,

Before perhaps reinventing the wheel, I figured it would be best to ask here.

My idea is this: I have an old PDA here (MDA Pro, WM6) which I want to connect to my server for the following:

1) Send me an sms on certain events
2) Being able to recieve sms or calls which should trigger events.

Does anyone know of a program that can do this?


Regards,

If you have GPRS (or any other type of internet connection) you can write an applition who sends messages to your phone.
Or better: you server runs a webservice so your phone can pick up messages. And any other internet connected device also.

If you want your server to send sms, you need a) a sms service online, probably payed b) a mobile/sms device connected to your server.

You can connect the phone trough Bluetooth and send AT commands.

Does that work?
I thought I read somewhere that all WM devices didnt respond to AT commands?
