Thanks. I already have a TIM SIM that I suspect was not set to English. When I get to Italy, I'll need to ask the dealer who I get the refill from to reset it. Do you recommend just going to a TIM dealer?

I've seen some set up instructions for UMTS on some sites (involving keystrokes). Does this involve an extra step? I have a Nokia N95, and while I have 3G turned off here (no 2100MHz UMTS here ), I would like to use it there.
