>This seems to be the big road block for taking online orders.

the problem of course is , that there is no generic way to do that which would work for everybody as it involves carrier costs and therefore everyone will want/need a different sms gateway which all have their own/different APIs

i am currently doing something integrating with tm4b (tm4b.com) as they send/deliver sms from/to pretty much every country on the planet and – from what i can see – are reasonably priced (although no doubt there are cheaper ones)

>Any progress?

slowly.
having said that, do you have a gprs enabled printer i could send things to for some testing when I’m ready to do so (in a week or two I would have thought) to see how they print out ?

if one gets this to work with those tm4b guys one could – probably – more easily adapt this for other gatewys using their apis as one would hope one can just change a few api calls (dont hold me to that though, as of writing i have no idea as to whether that’s actually true)
