Is it possible that the Freerunner is somehow destroying SIM cards (heat, over voltage etc?) The SIM card had previously worked fine in three different Nokia phones, then I put it in my Freerunner, and used it successfully for some calls and text messages. I then got busy with other things so I left my Freerunner on charge but not in use for about a month. After this period I found that the SIM card no longer worked in any phone. In my case, my operator (Orange UK) was happy to send me a replacement. -- David Pottage _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
