can anyone advise,
my daughter likes the phone 'Nokia E63 Black PAYG ',but wants to use another network, so if i get it unlocked by 3 can i use one of these here ' http://www.mobileguru.co.uk/acatalog/Twin_SIM.html' so she can use her own network and at the same time use 3 for the msn free texts and so on?
has anyone used one in the past 'dual sim' ?
thankyou

Not that one but similar products. That one says you can switch by an item in the memory, mine you had to power off and on the phone, but basically you can't sit on both networks at once, no matter how it does it if menas you can miss calls so if you called on he "normal" number and the phone is switched to the "3" sim you'll get a "this phone is switched off" message. Texts will be fine they'll just wait till the phone is online and then be sent.

If she's happy with that it will be fine.
