Hi Michael

Ok, I thought as much!

Basically I need a system to send an image to a target cellphone, but
preferably not through a 3rd party site. It's an application for the
security industry, so delay time is really of the essence here...

How do GPRS push methods work? The idea is that the target phone has someone
operating it, so it's no problem that they have to push buttons to accept
the image.

Is there a way to send an MMS to a phone with as little fuss and delay as
possible? The only thing I can think of is to have another gsm-modem phone
attatched to the pc running the software and actually send AT commands to
the pc-connected phone over the serial port telling it send an MMS to the
target phone.

Any ideas?

Thanks for the help.

Regards
Mark
