Wow.  A solution to a problem I didn't know I had.  I vaguely remember reading 
about it before and not taking not notice, but now...

Just curious what off-beat uses people have put it to.
  Things I can think off (and might give a try to help to learn shell 
scripting):

- Freebie email alerter.  Automate with script to send text on specific email 
receipt.
- Freebie news service: get to text lines of favourite rss feed ever so often, 
or lotto results/weather

All the best,

David
