There is an opensource software package to connect to phone usb port,
can drive its SMS via PC to make these mobile message relay, alert stations,
bridge email / IRC / twitter... anything you can dream to use phone SMS for.

There are SIM boards you can populate with SIMs to
do some useful telephony things in parallel, asterisk, etc.

Can add more "jmp"-like providers doing these things
and services around the globe.

Mobile can somewhat assist making some somewhat location
resistant technologies and use cases.

Look to radio for more... gnuradio tools.

Around the globe. So become familiar with opensource wallets,
use to trade goods services in local area.
