Re: Controlling cellular phone from computer

Anything is possible. It's only your time. I don't think I'd want to spend
the time to do that in native code. .NET Compact Framework has reasonable
Web service support, but you'd have to verify that you can do it.

Remember that, unless you're directly connected to the PC or on a local
wireless network, you're not likely to be able to connect to a socket on the
device over the Internet. I've never seen that work on a cellular network,
for example. They don't want you running your Web site over their
network...

I rather prefer having an aplication in the cellular listening for data in
a
port, wich will create an event, and sending data in answer to the main
application in the PC. The main application is a webservice. Could I do
that?
Specially, answering data?
There could be multiple instances of the webservice sending data, so
possibly I have to have synchronization.
Thank you for your previous answer.

It is a phone with Windows Mobile 6. I want to fire up an application
in
the
cellular phone when the main application in the computer decides it.

I'm not sure about SMS, but you can usually configure a phone to be a
modem
and use it as a connection to the Internet. At least, Windows Mobile
phones
all allow that. There's usually an application that converts the
phone
from
a device that the desktop would want to *sync* with (for exchanging
contacts, calendar items, etc.), to a *modem* device, which you can
set
up a
new modem connection for on the desktop and dial out. You've told us
something about what you want to do, but without knowing what phone, I
think
I've gone as far as I can go...

Hi! Is it possible to control a cellular phone from a computer by an
USB
port
or a serial port?
I want to connect a cellular phone to a computer by an USB port or
by a
serial ou other local port (not through Internet), so I can use the
phone
to
send SMS when I want. So that I can have GSM connectivity to my
programming
when I have limited connectivity to the cellular phone from the
computer
(only a cable...).
