Having got a hub working, the next item was an SMS gateway.
Again this is adaptation of the dbzoo livebox code -see http://www.dbzoo.com/livebox/sms However, the easiest way to get an SMS modem connected to a Pi is a 3G stick (aka 3G modem), probably a Huawei, and PAYG SIM. These are a few pounds on *bay. The code checks if the modem is a Huawei and adds some initialisation. Two tty's are generally exposed in Linux and /ttyUSB1 is the one to use in the config file.
Exact usage depends on your distro. I'm using wheezy and xapsmsPi sits in /home/pi and the config file in /etc
Rename the attachment from zip to gz before unpacking.
Next is an openelec/xbmc media interface, which is 50% done.
