CallKey CS said that short code sms are not supported (but I suppose it could be worth asking Manx as well), and the other problem would be no caller ID is sent by the SIM anyway (though this could be worked around).

UK people with O2 or Orange contracts might register that phone and forward to the IoM SIM though ...

I can think of another possible good use for this, but I haven't tried it out yet. I'm strongly tempted to cancel my contract phone if it works.

And there would be a way to call other countries at the UK tariff. I doubt those tariffs can last though, as free callback to a mobile can't be done.

Maybe we should keep an eye open for similar product launches elsewhere, as Finarea operates in over a dozen countries
