• 2 April - Gammu in Debian (hurray !)
• 13 April - Gammu.net lost. There is registered Gammu.org instead
• 18 April - Gammu 1.06.00 released. I have done many small steps inside:
  

  20060418 - 1.06.00
  [!] No more gammu.net. There is gammu.org instead. We release
      this version as 1.06.00, because we want force people to upgrade

  [+] Some new texts in Polish localisation (Tomek Fizyk)
  [*] SMSD DB updated to version 6. There should be "real" UTF8 used now
  

The best is always the most simple device. So, I think that using Nokia 3310 or 3410 can be very good choice. They have removed some SMS bugs (for example, 3330 has buggy firmware - you have to flash it with 3310 firmware to avoid any problems). Especially 3410 is interesting - has got LiIon battery.

More expensive Nokia phones (with own SMS memory) are more complicated and using them is not always good idea (of course, Gammu can do it).

In March there was gammu.net domain lost and Italy server not bought for next year.

I started to search new place for this www. It's located now on LiveNet.pl provider server. I payed for one month - if there won't be problems with hosting, I will continue it.

The biggest problem was with moving this Wiki. In old place database was using latin1 to UTF8 conversion, in new it doesn't work. I had to convert database to real UTF8:

Long weekend in Poland, a lot of time... I have finally found time to play with gammu.org and software.

First few words about site:

In first Nokia phones with GPRS (like 8310, 6310, 6310i, 6510, 3510 and maybe some other) phone was able to display "G" char instead of char displayed below network level. It was clear, that phone is in continuous GPRS session and downloading some data won't be connected with starting new session (in many networks connected with new money for operator). If phone end GPRS session after leaving WAP browser or data connection (no "G" char), it had disabled continuous GPRS sessions (it was done for example after upgrading firmware in service). Simple "gammu --nokiasetphomenus" "repaired" it.
