I know this is off topic but two in one sim!??
Can you give an url for some additional info on the subject.
Thanks.

Nothing much to it.
If your friends/family are spread over 2 different networks or you want a private and a businnes number this is better (arguably) than carrying 2 phones or swaping SIMs all the time.

You just ON->OFF->ON the phone to switch. Ofcourse you are online with one of them only at a time. But you could also *train* your friends to *call* you back to *their* network by ringing you once (touch-and-go single ring) on the *hostile* (more expensive to them) number.

That is actually quite cool, especially if you have a work sim and a private sim and don't wanna switch all the time when the working day is over 😊

Just got some feedback from a Portuguese P800 owner (Italian import) and it seams no go on the P800 (because of lack of contact ?)

hey
im not sure if i understand right, but rather than two sim cards etc (if its the same network atleast), why dont u just use call divert.
here in UAE (wheres theres only one network anyway), u can just divert one number to another, if switched off, busy etc; whichever u like...

Have a nice day peeps!

Call divert has costs, non negligebale costs if you are diverting to another network.
