Mobsessed update part 2 - maybe using mobile web server
I had a mess around with the internet connection feature on the GPRS modem software - it gives you the option to set up e.g. a connection using Vodafone (i.e. I am with Vodafone) GPRS. Haven’t set one up yet because then had a thought - remembered that Nokia have released a web server recently.
Its available from mymobilesite.net and there are more details on their wiki. I’ve just installed a copy - this screenshot below is what you can see when you open the application.
You can also view options through a browser, this screenshot below is an example of my site which have just set up.
I’ve had a very quick skim through the guide, you can send SMS to the mobile server (although at first glance they appear to go directly to a mailbox) and it says you can create mobile content using html and python, so I will do a followup post once I’ve had a chance to look into further.

Glad you found it! In fact people can send SMS to you that will drop into the phone message inbox just like regular SMSs. There is also an instant message that will be displayed immediately on the phone screen.

Thanks very much, this is really helpful. I hope to spend some more time exploring this weekend - I would still love to find a way of creating a simple mobile web page in an SMS message and sending it to a server so that it can display as a page, will keep looking into this.
There’s a whole lot of useful stuff with the mobile web server that I’m going to use anyway.
Cheers
