"Hi Tariq,
for most phones, a lot of data can be stored before upload.
An original Nokia 3100 from 2003 is a very low powered phone, so it may not do so well if you take a very large set of forms.
The newer Nokia 3110 Classic shouldn't have…"

- well, although the open source version of FLSMS is completely in the clear, we also produce end-to-end encrypted mobile messaging applications with similar ability, but with the encryption to protect the information, if required.
http://www.masabi.com/tech_encryptME.html
In most of our secure applications the purpose of the encryption is to provide secure banking or credit card payments to the latest international banking security standards, but they would be just as applicable for information exchange.
The benfit of coupling with distributed systems like FLSMS and SMS, and the low-specification phone support of FrontlineForms (the downloadable forms client for old and new phones) is that you don't need expensive smartphones, and you can set the system to work from anywhere you can send SMS.
We have a distributed system architecture that allows safe information exchange between parties via SMS where the central server, mobile network systems and any relaying systems are not a party to the data exchanged, and the vulnerabilities of the GSM A5 encryption algorithms are not an issue to data security, and the system can cope with the dissappearance of the central servers and operate islanded (quite key in most FLSMS deployments).
If you are interested in a further chat, send an email to ben@masabi.com.
