I think AppleSIM is presently a dual-use option on iPad only at the moment. It’s a nice idea and apparently does help in certain cases where the alternative is full-on international roaming charges (but still not quite as cost-effective as buying local, obviously).
But really, yeah, it’s just stupid. The whole notion of “Activation” is meaningless for an unlocked device. You should just be able to insert a SIM card, or not, according to preference, and configure any parameters yourself if the phone doesn’t know about them directly. I could do it on my Nokia E51, for heaven’s sake; why not on the iPhone? -- The following information is important for all members of the Mac Visionaries list.
