Hi guys
Im trying to find some HW for a project in which I want to take data from GPS and accelerometer and send to my server via modem (3G). I have seen SoC solutions (e.g. Telit) but really expensive! So far it has not been possible for me to find a cheap SoC solution (<50$).
I've also seen http://wm.sim.com/ but it's not easy to buy the chip from this supplier.
It has to be an embedded solution and I want it to be as cheap as possible.
Unfortunately I cannot find any good and cheap modem chips to buy on the market. I know there are a lot of Chinese and asian suppliers but I dont know how to approach this.
Can you please give me any advice on where or how I can find stand-alone modems to connect to a microcontroller?
Thanks.
