Dual SIM adaptor

---

Does anyone know of a dual SIM that fits in and works with Touch Diamond???

Why not use an N-in-1 card that allows you to clone a SIM? I find dual SIM's to decrease battery life on WinMo devices. A Ghost SIM should fit perfectly fine however.

Hi there,

I tried the dual sim adaptors from hot-wire-telekom.

I tried both

• the digital:
  hot-wire explains that this can cause problems - and it doesnot work
• the analog:
  should work - but it doesnot

I tried both with a Siemens S55 and it worked (digital version needs a lot of power - only about on third standby left).

I will have to contact the guys from hot-wire to ask what to do with the diamond.

To be continued...

Hmmm interesting... http://www.fonefunshop.co.uk/dualsim/magicsim.htm like this?

Does STK stuff work with winMO 6.1 etc etc.

You sound like you know your stuff so as much info as poss would be super helpful...

many thanks

How about this one from Brando? I'm going to order one soon. It's not cheap($27+3 shipped) though.

It says can directly switch the sim from sim menu.

The STK should work fine in Windows Mobile. DX has them the cheapest and offers free wordwide shipping. I've purchased many things from them and am very happy with their service.

I tried the Magic one and it didn't work. It looks to me that those adaptors work with Nokia type phones only.

Bummer - there must be one that actually works like the 6-in-1 magic SIM

Apparently they can cause problems with 3G/HSDPA? Anyone noticed that?

I almost got one, but having to switch over from one SIM to another and then back to the other just to see if I've missed calls/SMS's etc seems like something that I'd grow tired of very quickly.

If the Diamond had two radios, and could use two SIM's simultaneously, then that would be nice...

Yes I agree - I have put the calls on divert from my Orange number to my 3 sim works a treat problem solved for now - I am seeing a growing trend in Dual Radio phones though. Two HSDPA connections at once... LOL maybe in future we will se channel bonding
