Hi Rene,

SQLBox is built to be an injection mechanism into the bearerbox (and also can 
be used as a proxy) it's not designed to be an endpoint. I spoke with Alejandro 
about the possibility of simply using SQLBox in this fashion without connecting 
it to a bearerbox and we agreed that this would not be the correct solution and 
more along the lines of a kludge/hack. So rather than this I implemented an 
SMSC DB driver to be used as an endpoint (generates ACK's etc on successful 
inserts) so the behaviour is more defined and appropriate.

Hope this makes sense,
Donald Jackson
