I really need a twin-sim cover for my T68! Do you think a third-party manufacturer can make one for this phone?

If ANYONE can help me, please do!!

Thanks

This people sells ones that are suitable to use with ERICSSON: T28, T29, T39, R520..

Maybe they'll work with the T68 as the place where you insert your sim (in your T68) is very similar to the T28 & T39.

Here in Azerbaijan, we can have two numbers in ONE simcard. I'm sure if you can do that HERE, you must be able to do it in more civilized countries...
That would solve your Twin-sim problem

The only Network provider that does that is Orange over in the UK.

Have a look at this.
I know it's not a Dual Sim Holder but it may help

On a nokia phone, you can have a DUAL SIM ADAPTOR in which you can have 2 sims on 1 phone....i don't know if Ericsson have this.

the dual sim adaptor is not an original nokia accessories...its made by a 3rd party manufacturer...

Then there goes ericsson too, its difficult to imitate ericsson's accessories

Hello,

is it possible to switch on both SIM'S, so that you can call and also be available for the two at the same time, without switching on and off?
(I'm sure this has been discussed before, I just can't find it anywhere!)

Kenneth.

Twin SIM holders (or holders with battery included) replace the original battery cover (or battery depending on the design applicable) and work by the use of a logic gate during on/off of the phone.

So when you switch the phone on, one of the SIMs will be connected ONLY. Switching the phone off and on again will then rotate to the other SIM.

It's useful when you only want to carry around one phone but need to rotate between your own personal SIM and a work-supplied SIM, or if you are abroad using a local SIM card for cheaper calls and want to check your own SIM periodically (for SMS or VoiceMail etc.).

Having 2 different numbers on a single SIM card is nothing new, but as they are likely to be supplied by the same service provider - it is not as useful or flexible as having a twin SIM holder.
