Speak to the various telcos, they have dedicated arrangements (sales
teams, contracts, and rates) for large-scale data aquisition like
this.

[ubuntu-uk] GSM modems at sites

2010-10-29 Thread Jim Price
Raju

Mike would like to know what the position is with respect to the 
metering equipment at customer sites and its use of SMS messages to send 
data back to us. His concern is that with thousands of accounts, it 
might become and administrative problem to ensure that all the sending 
GSM modems don't have their accounts expiring. Can you provide him with 
details of how that side of things will be set up please, in addition to 
the data spec I'm waiting for.
