Hmm, another idea pops up into my mind right now. Any chance we can get a big
bunch of pre paid SIMs without money on the account? If we would get some 100s
of them we could prepare them in advance and just hand out to the people.
Kai Muenz mentioned it on the list already, there are GSM SIMs available
at
http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.16159. 10 pieces cost $US 3.94
including shipping. If you don't mind about a Chinese SIM Toolkit Menu which
you can't read and also don't mind to remove a little bit of glue from
some of the SIMs, they are fine for this purpose.
Hmm, if we would calculate with 200 cards we would have ~80 USD costs for them.
Maybe not the baddest thing. Let's wait to what conclusion we come here before
going ahead. A technical solution that let the user handle the registration on
it's own is still my favorit. Sadly we can't estimate how many subscribers we
will get. :)
