Hello all! This board already helped out several times... Is it possible to read out an received WAP Push message from a device or a tool installed on a laptop? I know you can take old Siemens devices not capable of WAP Push. They store the SMS on SIM and you can read them using ZOC and AT commandes. But I'm looking more a pc tool to achieve this.

Any dedicated GSM modem device (read: NOT a phone with in-built GSM modem) will do the trick.

The WAP push client in a GSM phone will intercept the message before it can be presented over the GSM modem interface. So you want a GSM modem that doesn't interfere with received messages.

I'm talking about external modem devices like the Siemens MC35 Terminal, Wavecom/Multitech GSM/GPRS modems, Nokia 3x Terminals, or various PC card modems.

Because MMS messages are delivered in part with a notification over WAP Push ... this is one of the reasons that NowSMS requires a dedicated GSM/GPRS modem device in order to receive MMS messages.
