Which Cell Phone Card to Use With Arduino

Which Cell Phone Card to Use With Arduino

Pardon for the basic questions, I looked around and seems the guides assume you know what you are doing or have done this before.

I am looking for a card, probably use with a Pro Mini.

I want to be able to send texts under control of the Arduino, receive texts into the Arduino and reply to phone numbers received based on instructions in the received texts.

i.e. if “WEA” was in the text reply with current weather conditions or “HIS” the text reply might have the last six to 9 hours of data.

This is planned for a couple of remote monitoring sites that several people would want current or trending over perhaps the preceding six hours.

Then at some time in the future do the same thing with email.

Thanks for any help on board and plan selection, wireless communications is totally new/foreign to me.
