I'm being billed through Cingular and I'm a Cingular user.

Is anyone out there dialing the Cingular TAP gateway?

This is the reason we have out of band paging (TAP to Skytel).

I had talked to Cingular about the "Enterprise Paging" feature.
This is a grandfathered AT&T feature that costs about $9.95/month.
Gives you unlimited SMS from the "Enterprise Paging" sources to the
phone that has the feature.  SMS still costs for other sources and
sending.  http://www.enterprisepaging.com/

Cingular plans on migrating this service to the offical Cingular network
and billing system, by the end of the calendar year.

So, until then, the service is not available to "Offical" Cingular
customers, only customers still on the old AT&T billing system.

You could see about http://www.mblox.com/.  They seemed to have bought
the old MobileSys company.  They provide the ability to send SMS to
anywhere, internationaly.  But, $$$.  They primarily use Internet
connections, but also provide TAP access for last resort, like Cingular.

I suspect the Cingular feature will be unreliable until to full
migration is complete.
