Build your own cellular project and get off the grid with FONA. This pack comes with an uFL-antenna type FONA and paired with hand-picked accessories. It's the Adafruit FONA 800 Shield Starter Pack.
The FONA 800 Shield, is an adorable all-in-one cellular phone shield that lets you add voice, text, SMS and data to your project in an easy to use pluggable shield.
This shield fits on top of any classic Arduino or compatible, and packs a surprising amount of technology into it's little frame. At the heart is a GSM cellular module (we use the latest SIM800) the size of a postage stamp. This module can do just about everything. This starter pack has a FONA 800 Shield.

Sounds delicious, right? So Adafruit plated this fine module onto a shield with all the extras you need to make your next project shine.
On its own, this shield can't do anything. It requires a microcontroller like an Arduino to drive it!
Microcontroller not included! Adafruit recommend an Arduino UNO to go along SIM card not included! If you are in the USA, Adafruit recommend TING
