Sim900

This is an Arduino library for the Sim900 GPRS Shield. It relies on the 2.8v pin from the Sim900 being plugged into one of the analog pins so that the library can determine the power state of the modem.

To work with the Arduino Mega2560 the software serial pins need to be remapped to pins that support change detect (PCINT). With some Arduino jumper leads, map pin 7 to pin 10 and pin 8 to pin 11.

Example usage:
