So that's why I stopped getting slashdot headers and Bursa indexs...

This is not the first time they have done this. The first time, I've used
Nadav's original script which was based on a GET of the text.cellcom.co.il
URL, filtering the session number, and another GET. The modified procedure was
almost the same, but with a POST method at the end.
It seems like I'll need to study Nadav's script again.
Actually, I've reimplemented it because I was tired of installing all the Perl
packages needed for the program to work. Instead I've used the w3c utility to
do all the POST/GET methods, or even used lynx.
Actually, by looking at the code, Nadav's script seems more rubust. It's time
I'll harden mine, instead of ignoring errors. I also didn't support Orange so
far, but their prics seems to be better than cellcom these days
(unbelievable).
n.b. anyone knows if the new LG-800W from pelephone (the one with the free 300
minutes/month for pelephone 3 numbers) has an IR connection? it had a modem,
and if it had IR it would be ideal for palm owners.

Pelephone support is easy. Just use Pelemail using
9723xxxxxx@msg.pelephone.co.il for 051-xxxxxx numbers (correct me if I'm
wrong), and 9720xxxxxx@msg.pelephone.co.il for 050-xxxxxx numbers.

nadav - thanks for the original script!
n.b. the old site used to say that it was limited to 20 messages/day (per
username ofcourse). From my experience, there was no such limit.
