Hi Guys,

I have just purchased an i-Mate SmartPhone device. I want to integrate the same with VB/VB.net to send SMS.

Can anybody tell me how can I do this. I am new to this topic. Hope to receive a favourable response from you guys.

Thanks,
Santosh

I don't believe any of the Windows smart phones expose a GSM modem interface for sending/receiving SMS.

You can always try configuring it for a connection to NowSMS, but I believe that device does not have a GSM modem interface.

If you are looking to develop a VB application that runs on the actual device, you could probably send SMS from that, but I'd suggest you visit a forum that deals with Windows Smart Phone programming for more details on that. (And no, I don't have any forum to suggest, but considering this is the support forum for the Now SMS/MMS Gateway product, this isn't the right place.)
