  Well, a Nokia and an Ericcsson phone don't load it either so maybe the
  SIM card is borked. Ah well...

 I had a similar situation where a prevously working SIM card stopped 
 working in any phone, after being left in a Freerunner for about a month.
 
 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.

Definitely not on my case. My old SIM has been in the Freerunner since I
got it in July 2008, and still works as fine as it ever did since 1997.

It's a new SIM card that isn't recognized by any phone in my reach.

And, BTW, I had a belgian Base Prepaid which didn't work on the
Freerunner but did on that same Nokia, and with moko10 firmware now
works on the Freerunner a well.

That's not it almost for sure. It doesn't even register (search for 
in the attached file, where it sends the -- obscured -- pin code).

Lot's of weird messages...
