Does anyone know where I can get hold of a duel sim holder for the t68 (preferablt in the UK) it fits between the battery and the phone. You can switch between two sim cards by switching the phone on ond off. I used to have this on my t28 and would like to add this feature to my t68 if possible.

Thanks

That would be great if it was possible!!!
I use two different numbers so for me it would be perfect!!!

Let's hope somebody out there know something about this!

Gadgets galore (http://www.gadgets-galore.net/) do dual sims. Not sure if there's a T68 one out yet, but the guy who runs it is a member of this list, so if he reads this, maybe he'll let us know!!

I visited the site, they look cool the dual SIM-cardholders! But there is none for the T68...yet...
Let's hope for some more info on this!

Just a word of warning for when T68 dual sim holders do become availiable.
You have to switch the phone off and on to activate the other sim but when I had one on my 8210 this caused the voice dials and speed dialing numbers to be lost and had to be restored everytime you switched networks.
I don't no if this will be the same with the T68 but just be aware.

I thinl that the only items you lose are, unsaved text messages, and the call lists incoming/outgoing/missed as these are the only items I lose when I swap the sim cards in manually.

I understand loosing the unsaved SMS, but I wonder about the voice-commands...?
I would love to have this in my T68, so we'll just have to wait and see and hear when somebody has tested it! What is the webadress to the site where it will be available in a month?
Looking forward to it!!!

I had a dual SIM-card holder on a Motorola and, believe me, it only sounds cool. It's a hassle to turn the phone on and off (besides, I think it could be quite stressful for the whole thing), the other line is always off - unless you divert, and that is something you have to do every time. Finally, it makes the phone bulky and far less elegant than it is in its original appearance.

If both linies could be on, that would be an entiraly different story. This way, it's much easier to carry two phones or carry your extra SIM on top of your active one, beneath the battery (as I do now).

Maybe You won't get the same problems with your T68, I think it's worth trying once such a thing is available! It might work very well!
