I have a request from one of our clients for a ringtone sending application.Since i dont have time right now to concentrate on this, iam passing on this to my family of coders in RAC and i hope my client will be satisfied.Below is the mail which my client sent me. " Dear Vinoth, I own a ringtone website where i give ringtone codes for download for free and my site has been a bumper hit and iam getting many visitors these days.Now i have planned to sell ringtones through sms from my website.I know many sms gateways and sms components to do that where we have to by sms credits or buy the component.But i dont want to do that way. I want to use my computer as the sms gateway. What i need is a VB or VC++ application which must interact between my website - database - GSM Device (GSM MODEM/GSM PHONE,Kindly advice which is the best for my purpose) which must connect to my website and check for any ringtone requests every one hour ( I need this kind of an application because i dont have a broadband connection but i have a stable 128 kbps dsl line. But still i dont want my application totally dependent on internet.My application must need internet only for a few mininutes every 1 hour to receive the request.By this way iam minimising the use of internet in my application.So even if my dsl connection has a problem i can use a dialup connection to connect to my website and receive the request. ) After the ringtone requests are received , my application must connect to the database,fetch the requested ringtone and send the ringtone to the desired user 1 by 1 because the phone or gsm modem might hang due to multiple requests ( iam not sure about this ,kindly advice). Hope you understood what iam after.Kindly send your valuable suggestions of how can you do this , will you be able to provide me a stable application ? Any suggestions on this "YOU ARE WELCOME" Thank You, B.M.Krishnan TSS ADMIN " Thats it friends.... if anyone interested in doing this ..send in your ideas of your approach along with your costs and timeframe.People who already have done such applications or who already have some experience in such stuff is preffered as this is a budget project, GOOD LUCK Happy Bidding With Best Regards, C.Vinoth Chandar CEO Buddies Infotech Private Limited Chennai,INDIA Deliverables: 1) Complete and fully-functional working program(s) in executable form as well as complete source code of all work done. 2) Installation package that will install the software (in ready-to-run condition) on the platform(s) specified in this bid request. 3) Complete ownership and distribution copyrights to all work purchased.
