This gets lots of results. Most appear to be for club use (ie, fixed installs).
May be some free tools out there, it depends on what you need. It will need some kind of moderation, otherwise you'll get jokers posting unsuitable content...

Neat idea, I do the projection system but I am not sure I would want the punters putting up their own pictures from a phone without them being vetted first....the mind boggles as to what would appear. boff.gif

Most commercial offerings have some kind of moderation system. The biggest problem will be the cost of the Short SMS code if you want to do it properly.
These are not free, approx £25/month+set-up.
Not bad for a large bar/club where you can add a premium rate and generate income (£1/message), but for a mobile rig - I would expect most would use a normal (long) mobile phone number..

i have found some clubs do it via blue tooth and have the softwear on the pc and can see all the messages and pic before they go up but i couldnt get the name of the softwear its a cool idea and also handy for requests when the punters cant get up neer you
