Your Pix-star is not only able to receive photos, it can now also receive SMS from ANY mobile phone!
Using a FREE service from www.contactissimo.com, simply send an SMS from ANY mobile phone to the number +33613206290 (save this number in your phone book) using this special format for SMS content:
Pixstar_email_address;subject;message content
IMPORTANT: Don’t forget to put the two semi-colons ‘ ; ‘ which are MANDATORY!
You can save this SMS template on your mobile phone so you don’t need to enter it each time.
…The recipient Pix-Star photo-frame will receive the SMS within a few seconds!
For example, Arnaud wants to send a message to his mum. He sends this:
marie@mypixstar.com;From Arnaud;Hi mum, hope you feel better today. Take care! Arnaud.
That’s it! Why don’t you try now?
This is how you can use Pix-Star in a very simple way to communicate with people who are not part of the “mobile revolution” (grandpa or grandma for instance). It’s a perfect way to say a ‘hello’, to share your everyday life and show them you care. Pix-star is also compatible with mobile phones!
Enjoy! 
This sooo coool! Thank you PixStar – my life is changed!
J’ai mis un peu de temps à comprendre la première fois, mais maintenant ça va tout seul. Super!
太酷了。谢谢PixStar。我好喜欢。
Find Ich ganz toll.
J’ai trois PixStar, ils communiquent tous entre eux. Faut apprendre à se servir de la commande, mais après ça ça roule tout seul. Quand est-ce qu’il sert le café à distance mon cadre?
What a briliant idea.
But do you have a telephone number for texts in UK?
Would be great for the grandchildren to text their grandparents using their free texts (not sending them internationally with the associated roaming charges).
Hello,
We really would like to find a free service that offers SMS-to-Email gateway in the UK but till now we could not find one. If you happen to know one do not hesitate to tell us we will integrate it immediately.
As you know Pix-Star need this gateway so that the SMS coming from the telecom operator can be routed to the email and then be received on the frame.
Thanks for this suggestion.
