Even better, how about controlling your car; onstar style.
You could lock/unlock doors, arm/disarm alarm, roll up/down windows, start car. Endless options! All it would take is an inexpensive pay as you go cell phone.

I can't find these cell phones anywhere

you can use most sony ericsson cell phones, they have very easy to interface serial and AT commands. Some models have Text mode, so you don't have to format the data into PDU, just straight text.

thats called proof of concept, edgarg

edgarg, my oven kitchen timer can set off a bomb, what is your point? There's just as many positive things this can be used for.
I have made something simliar to send GPS coordinates to track a vehicle (incase it's ever stolen).

http://www.serasidis.gr/circuits/smscontroller/smscontroller.htm
let me repeat my question/query,
since Sir Serasidas has been using an antique Ericsson T10 in his projectr i.e. SMS remote controller....what i wanna know is that if i can alter his project by introducing Sony-Ericsson J300i instead of Ericsson T10 (since i have the AT commands for Sony Ericsson J300i)...Would this work fine, or it could lead to some other complication..
I shall be grateful to anyone who shall answer this query..i have finish my project,as soon as possible
Reply to this comment
Does anyone know how to modify this circuit so that it will have a confirmation or feedback when the t10 receives the messege and activates the device? please help...
Im trying to make it as a school project and our teacher wants us to add a ton of features, I think he wants a mind controll through sms device...
