Default Market place and rebel sim?

Hi all,

I installed a rebel sim, and it is working as expected on my dell streak, but i tried using marketplace today and it will only show up free aplications but no paid apps at all!!

has anyone seen this before?

its says

'no matched content in android market'

really bizare as it works fine if i take the sim and rebel out and use only wifi? i cant see how the rebel sim would be blocking the paid apps?

Marketplace allows you to download apps depending on the Sim/Carrier you use. Thats how they know which apps can install on your device. So if it can't read your sim card properly or the sim doesn't provide carrier info thats where your problem is arising from.
