Hi James,

Was looking also in that direction.
Next week (thursday) i will get a delegation from ipaccess and a demo.

( i know it is possible to use wifi/bluetooth phones,
but if the intendend target-group can use it's own provate gsm-phone
(which they all have), i have a distint feeling those will last
longer. ;-) (and cost ME less!))

I will share any info i'll get asap...
