Hi, i have a question (or idea). Itīs possible to have a dual sim comunicator if iīll buy adapter for 2 SIMs to my HTC Touch Diamond? That adapter itīs for 2 SIMs but it must be switched 1st or 2nd SIM. Maybe any software can do DUAL SIM (=two SIM card runnig together)?:confused:

I doubt it's room for that in the diamond.

The Diamond would need Dual antennas for the two Sims to work simultaneously.

Even if the device could support two Sims then the only option would be for the Sims to Poll the antenna (one on and one off for a period of time- say 5 minutes alternatively).

take a look at the E-Ten Glofish DEX - the worlds first Dual sim windows mobile - coming soon :D or a network thats supports a second line on one sim - I know Orange in some countries do this as well as other providers. but not all phones support this - though the diamond does:D

I tried that. Bought me a dualsim-holder on e-bay. But you have to cut out the chips from your sim-cards and then put them in a replace-simcardholder. Further is the new holder to thick for the diamond, so it doesn't fit.

Dont believe what you see..:-)

Dual antena, ok Diamond dont have two antenas, but maybe switching period can be faster (in miliseconds). Maybe some privat memory in RAM for processing or something like this. If you understand what i mean, the switching period looks like "running simultaneously".Iīm not programator, i have just question about this if its possible to programing that software.

All that switching is point less as every time it was switched I would thing the SIm will have to register onto the network every time - :confused:
