A recent change in the way that the Telna SIM connects means that, in direct-dial countries (e.g. US, Canada, Australia, etc.), the cellular data feature works, regardless of the phone's APN settings. You need to turn your phone's data off and not rely on a bogus APN to prevent data charges. Fortunately, this lesson only cost me about 50c to learn.
