Want a service provider for Data only SIM cards

    Hi All,

    I was wondering if anybody knew of a service provider who covers Ireland with the following requirements.

    I will be supplying customers with GPRS enabled devices, these will be deployed in batches of 100. Each device will obviously have it's own GPRS modem & SIM card. The data transfer rates will be very low per unit, 10-50kB per month would be way over the top on an individual basis.

    What I would like to do is have one central data tarrif that I am responsible for. So that I pay the data charges to the provider. I would purchase my 100 SIM cards and distribute them as I see fit, and I would in turn get paid a flat monthly fee from each of the users. There would never be any voice or SMS required on these SIMs, purely data.

    There's a US company called Jasper Wireless who provide this service but I'm not sure if it's available in Ireland.

    Anybody have any experience of this themselves or know of a company who provides this?

    Thanks

    M

    I'm looking for something similar - the only difference is that I'll be using about 250KB - 1MB per day (further testing will give me exact reuiqments). I spoke to O2 and they are sending out a rep. - I'll let u know what deals they offer.

    Hi,

    Did anyone find a service provider that can offer cheap data that can be shared over multiple sims on an account. We are offering GPS tracking and we are finding it very hard to get a good package.

    thanks
