Flashing the GPRS Shield
Working with the Libelium Hilo Sagem shield
OK so I realize it has been sometime since I have posted to this blog, but hey, that's just the way it goes sometimes. I ran into a really thick wall that was difficult to get over. So I have been trying to get the shield to send an SMS message from the Cutecom interface but I haven't been successful. So I have been trying to flash the shield with the actual code that is available on the tut from Libelium. So I have trying to figure out how to flash the board with out any success as previously stated. What the tut from Lubelium does not explain is that the ATMEGA chip needs to be in the Arduino board with the shield on top. I did try this one time before but I either had a bad board or chip (Arduino) but didn't realize it. Luckily we have extra boards hanging around. I did also had the board attached to a capacitor (uf 220) with out any power attached. I really don't think that made a difference for this step.

layout? maybe!
this is the layout i liked the most out of the ones i attempted. it's more designed thinking of one opinion being displayed at a time. i was also looking at fonts and dafont.com has quite a few that i thought were possibilities so i'll add a link to the ones i was looking at. the font in the image i have is also one of the ones i thought had potential so i just included the title of the font in the composition.

costs...
Arduino Mobile Pack the Cost: 88 Eur = $124.54
This includes the Arduino Deumilanove and the GPRS shield module for Arduino (Hilo - Sagem)
This is the shield the would require a sim card in order to receive texts.
The sim card activation would require a $20 one time activation fee and a plan of unlimited texts at $10 per month.
I am having trouble finding the parts that we really need. Mainly with the GPRS unit. However I did find this site where people can text in responses and have it display instant results.
costs are free to $1200 a semester.
