    hi all

    i set this up sometime ago..and it works.but heres my problem..

    i can text everyone in europe but cant the states as the cost would be massive.so basically i will add you if your european

    i have not had anyone say they would do the states side of things.so unless someone is willing to send a large group text your side ofthe pond its just going to be me doing this side.

    i can text one person usa side so the info gets passed on from here.

    most of the people on the europe side got a backpack if they wanted one..

    this is not a 100% full proof as sometimes i do miss the odd announcment :evil:

    cheers kev

    I'd do this for the US, but I dont have a program on my Blackberry to do mass texts without adding each number/person manually every time. That would probably ruin the purpose of a "quick" notice...

    I just got whatsapp on my BB, so I could forward to someone in Canada or the US who also has it as well.

    AT&T has an email to SMS gateway so if someone could email from their device it would text me. My iPhone also has a group texting feature but I've never used it before. If it works I'd be more than happy to text anyone in the US.

    In fairness I got the text too but slept thoough it. Then when Santos put the item back up the next day I got one and sent a couple of texts back out and it seemed to spread pretty quickly. So as Kev says it aint fool proof, far from it, but I like this system and so far so good.

    So I had signed up for this last year too. My name is at the top of the second list. I got the number of the person below me (umbertotomba) but never had any further contact about this. I have never received a text.

    How can I get back on/added to whatever list is going on. I have AT&T if that helps a someone can email me a text from Europe (if the earlier posts are correct.)

    I did not read all 15 pages so this might have been said but maybe you can make a twitter feeed jsut for items. we can all follow it with our cell phones. when you tweet an item is there we all get the txt. just an idea that might help make it easier

    BRILLIANT!

    A couple/ few "main" people should probably have the password to aforementioned twitter feed to ensure no item is left behind.

    I think "boothead" may have suggested this because the person a few posts back mentioned being second on one of the lists but never receiving a text when goods became available. Otherwise, I agree, if it ain't broke,,,

    you do not need a twitter account, twitter will send a txt to you cell phone if you "follow" the feed. once the twitter account is set up (example #pjitems) you txt "follow #pjitems" to 40404 (might be diffrent # in your country) then you will get all the twitter txt without having a twitter account on ya cell

    oh that sucks that they charge extra for a txt from twittter?.. Its just an SMS txt. Arent you getting sms txt now for item notification from someone else? This would be the same type of sms txt. either way, good luck getting all your cool stuff :) once my basement is done i can afford some stuff too (unless north american tour is coming 2012 lol)
