The reason I'm asking is I have a 3pay sim which works fine, and I've put it in two separate Nokias (a 6680 and a 6630, though these are probably blocked) and not been able to get a signal, although when doing a manual network search it finds 3 and other networks, but won't allow me to connect. It's worked in a 7600 as well as an LG 8110.

Do 3 sims only work in certain phones, or not like being swapped into other phones?

yes they should work on all phones that accept 3G sim cards.

u have to know, that for example a "3" card work perfect only in a model, what has been sold by "3" itself aswell. i had z1010 ( what wasnt sold by "3" in austria ) so i was able to browse the net, but couldnt access the trailer zone, planet 3 etc in k608i cos of that crap 3 barnding and the modified fw, onlöy with the "3" fw is possible to access the "3" trailer zone, failed with k600. with 6680, n70 and even with n90 ( all of them had original nokia fw, not the "3" branding, was able to access the "3" sites.
