Yes you can now get them for t68i, but i wouldn`t bother,my experience is this, i used twin sims on Nokias and was OK cos if one network was down (like in the country) i could switch to another. but then i started using them for a cheap sms sim & a cheap talk sim, but then you miss sms replies cos people send to your different numbers & you have to keep checking & stuff. so now i use extra sims in an extra tiny simple phone,the benefit is i`m never caught with flat battery + one phone is adds & business, works great.
Second problem is the t68i is not suited to twin sim use because of it`s long boot up time to use phone book, i tried a dual sim battery & it was far too long unless it`s just for rare emergancy use. but then you may aswell do what i do (i carry 3 sims) i have (for a year now) got one in a little stick on pocket on my battery which fits in the free space exactly above the normal sim in the t68i, i just swop them, it takes the same time & you don`t have to put up with some cheap & less effective replacement battery(twin sim batt) i have tiny glued on tabs on the non business end of my sims to make removal less harmfull & quicker.sims don`t seem to wear out either as you would think. |

@pachy- have you tried the sim+ sim cards that allow you to have more than one number on a phone without rebooting? |
