I'm looking for a way to run a simple motion detector (as in physical motion using a gryoscope device) and have this notify me somehow that motion has occured. The bit I get stuck on is how to enable connectivity so it can notify me from a remote position with no access to wifi or wired network.

I would love for this thing to consume minimal power too, so I only have to recharge the battery once per week (for example, this might not be possible, or maybe something much better is possible, i have no idea)

The most convenient option I can think of is a cheap smartphone with 3g/4g data connection that can somehow integrate with the motion sensor and enables me to write some code to send a message.

There must be something better suited to this though. Thoughts welcome.
