Does anyone no of a wm5 application that when the sim card is changed it texts the telephone number of the new sim card to a predefined telephone number? Even better if it could be stored in memory somewhere.

LOL, good point :lol:

Wish WM5 would implement this in ROM, like Nokia on the E61 or Samsung on the E900
