I’m looking for a mobile software that will send/receive text messages from mobile phone to a database(if not directly I can build a service or something to receive it) so that the program will insert new messages into specific table and polls another table for outgoing messages. I found a program called Ultrasms that does something similar but it runs on a computer paired with the mobile. I would like the software to actually run on the mobile. I don’t really have preference about the mobile OS I just want to build it fast.
If you don’t know of any software, do you recommend the easiest way to do this? (Windows Mobile, Android, IPhone, BlackBerry?) and using what language/Framework to do this?
You could use Windows Mobile quite easily. The Compact Framework has the MessageInterceptor class which allows you to do something (i.e. inserting it in a database) when a message is received.
Just use a web service on the server which the Windows Mobile device can call to store the message data, and use another function to poll the server and return any messages to the device that need to be sent out.
All the code needed for this is C# and standard available in the .NET Compact Framework, so no need for any third-party DLLs or software.
