I called Voice stream and one of operatior said that. when you get a T68, make sure you get 32k and not 16k version of sim card. But now I call and no one seem to know what I am talking about. All they know is one sim card for all phones.
I would like to know are there two different memory capacity sim cards, 16k and 32k? Or just one?

there are various SIM card capacities: 8k, 16k, 32k and 64k.
some phones have trouble working with newer, high-cap SIMs. while some new phones have problems with older 8k SIMs.

If there is a way that we can tell the differences between sim cards that would help a lot of people. Getting ripped by celluar companies isn't cool at all. I do wish there are more information about these different capacity sim cards. |

Our SP, Globe Telecoms (Philippines), indicates the SIM capacity at the back of the SIM card. Mine clearly states 32k. (and they look physically different from the older ones) |

Most of the 32K cards that are being made say 32k on them. The easiest way to tell is to see how many #'s the sim will hold. A 32 will hold around 250, 16 about 110, 8 about 50. |
