> SMS through GPRS (Java)
Bookmark topic
Have any of you ever heard of a company that lets you send cheap sms by using a java applet on your phone that sends the message to the company's SMS gateway through GPRS ?
I remember seeing a site that offered that before I got my P800, but I forgot to bookmark it for later.
It would be great if any of you knew of any of these sites, as it could mean great savings in SMS costs.

what's the point of sedning SMS through GPRS? Does this change the way you're billed or something? Meaning are you billed for data instead of an sms message?

It means that you pay for the data that you send through your GPRS bill, and you buy credits for SMS from the external company, and those SMS are much cheaper than you have to pay to your mobile carrier.

of course you will have to pay GPRS charges for the message that you send, but it's not very many kb of data, and will probably not cost more than a few cents.
Altogether I would save at least 50% compared to what my carrier charges.
I just need to find that website again
