Hello
I just read this article about a kid in England who built a box with a
3G SIM card:
www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-1394448/Doorbell-tricks-burglars-thinking-youre-home-invented-schoolboy-Laurence-Rook-13.html
When someone rings your intercom, the box will call your cellphone so
you can answer just like you were home.
The company I work for sell SIP door entry phones but I'll not post
anything here since this is not a commercial list!
We also used to have a DECT door entry system that would do the same
thing as that kid has "invented" a few years ago. It got a small bit on
a TV program here in the UK called The Gadget Show. I spent the day
with the film crew guys setting up the kit but unfortunately didn't get
to meet the rather nice woman who presents the show - they filmed that
part another day and edited it all together.
Anyway, I don't really see that this is particularly unique, I also know
of companies who already make GSM/3G door entry devices too although
they are generally aimed at the business market rather than for home use
(pricing & design reflects this).
cheers,
Paul.
