Certainly some interesting ideas floating around. I'm glad to hear from andy that this sim seems to roam ok in different countries as this is the main reason for having it!

I did a small experiment today and was able to setup a callback from voipfone using their "PDA" login (Voipfone Link)via the WAP browser on a Nokia 6230. Even though this system does work it is far from ideal as it involves entering a username, password, phone number for callback and then finally the number you want to call. If any of you guys are like me then you'll have so many mobile numbers just even remembering the number you want the callback to ring to is a challenge in itself! I saved the username and password in the wallet function in my WAP browser but it still involves a fair bit of typing to setup the callback. My concern is it's just too complex to use in the real world. If the IE on my windows smartphone or PDA had the facility to save usernames etc.. like the PC version then this would make things a lot easier. Perhaps there is a plugin or something?

When experimenting with the voipfone callbacks I noticed another good feature is the CLID sent is that of my landline number. When combined with call diversion it means people who miss my call or whatever can simply call me back.
